Can one be an architect and committed to seriously addressing social and climate challenges? As Simon Teyssou reminds us, “tomorrow, we may no longer call ourselves architects, but I don’t believe our professions, in the plural, will disappear.” In this roundtable, we will explore this plurality to showcase how today’s experiments are asserting themselves and becoming established, offering a convincing landscape of alternative professions. In this context, we will discuss education and how architecture schools could—or should—focus on the professionalization of students who wish to practice in ways other than traditional project management.
