13 – 17 March 2017 – UNDERGROUND URBAN ENVIRONMENT PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT WEEK – International Symposium, Bucharest

During the 13 – 17 March 2017, CCIAS organized at Bucharest UNDERGROUND URBAN ENVIRONMENT PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT WEEK – International Symposium. This event aimed to give a clear image of the urban underground management activity and the use of underground information in the urban planning process. The main purpose of this symposium was to make an important contribution to the process of interaction and relationship between experts who develop knowledge about the urban areas underground and urban planners as well as decision-makers involved in the urban planning process. During this symposium, 6 scientific seminars were organized, the central activity being represented by the final conference of the SUB-URBAN COST Action (https://sub-urban.squarespace.com/ ), a European network of geological institutes, universities, cities and research institutes that develop together concepts on the underground cities management.
