Everyone is welcome to participate in the MENA-Space Syntax Webinars, hosted by the Department of Architecture and Urban Planning, College of Engineering, at Qatar University in Doha.
Space syntax is an international research program of academics and industry practitioners scientifically investigating the role of built space in society from the single building to entire regions using network science. Founded in the late 1970s and early 1980s by Bill Hillier, Julienne Hanson, John Peponis, Alan Penn, and several others at University College London in the UK, space syntax has developed a set of techniques for the representation and measurement of architectural and urban space over the last 40 years. Today, the international space syntax community comprises hundreds of researchers and practitioners in more than 40 countries around the world, especially in Europe, Asia, and South America.
