Title: Formação académica em Arquitetura Paisagista Identidade e articulação entre ciclos de estudo na Universidade de Évora, Portugal Authors: Freire, Maria; Carapinha, Aurora Abstract: A formação em Arquitetura Paisagista em Portugal, iniciada nos anos 40 do século XX, evoluiu em estreita relação com mudanças institucionais, influências europeias e transformações técnico- científicas. Este artigo apresenta uma sistematização dos oitenta anos deste percurso, centrando- se no caso da Universidade de Évora, uma das escolas fundadoras e influente no desenvolvimento da Arquitetura Paisagista no país. A análise integra a identidade desta formação e considera os três ciclos de estudos - licenciatura, mestrado e doutoramento - articulando a evolução histórica, as reestruturações curriculares, os princípios pedagógicos e o alinhamento com referenciais internacionais. A metodologia inclui análise documental, revisão comparativa de planos de estudo e enquadramento internacional, permitindo identificar continuidades estruturantes, mudanças significativas e singularidades pedagógicas. Os resultados evidenciam a afirmação de um modelo formativo holístico, interdisciplinar e fortemente ancorado nas ciências biofísicas, culturais, sociais e artísticas, com destaque para os contributos de figuras fundacionais e para a ligação entre ensino, investigação e prática profissional. Conclui-se que a formação em Arquitetura Paisagista na Universidade de Évora tem desempenhado um papel estruturante na consolidação da disciplina em Portugal, expressando um compromisso com a experimentação pedagógica, a ética da paisagem e os desafios societais contemporâneos associados ao ordenamento, desenho e gestão da paisagem.

Title: Walking and drawing: Experimental pedagogies in architectural education at the university of Évora Authors: Salema, Sofia; Guilherme, Pedro Editors: Cirklová, J. Abstract: In an age of rapid digitization in architectural education, design studios are often dominated by computer modelling, standardized templates, and virtual simulations. This digital shift has brought efficiency and new capabilities, but it also risks detaching architectural learning from the tactile and contextual realities of place. In response, the architecture program at the University of Évora – a centre for the creation, transmission and dissemination of culture, science and art, which, through the combination of study, teaching and research, is integrated into the life of society – recentres embodied and situated design practices. Drawing from Donald Schön’s notion of the design studio as a locus of “reflection-in action”,1 our approach emphasizes learning through direct engagement with real environments. We posit walking, drawing, and redrawing as core methods for re-grounding architectural education in lived experience and critical reflection. Évora’s unique setting – a historic walled city surrounded by Alentejo landscapes – provides an ideal “living laboratory”2 for this approach, where students immerse themselves in the genius loci of place rather than solely in digital abstractions. By taking design learning back to the field and sketchbook, we aim to cultivate perceptive, contextually aware architects who can integrate the sensory and social dimensions of architecture with contemporary design challenges. This article elaborates on these pedagogical strategies as developed in the Design Studio and Urban Design units at Évora. It presents case studies of student work – such as Sylvie Claro’s walking-based exploration of Évora’s aqueduct, Gabriel Oliveira’s drawing-based inquiry into a riverine landscape, and Claudia Batista’s redrawing of Álvaro Siza’s sketchbooks – to illustrate how walking, drawing, and redrawing operate as tools of analysis, imagination and research. Through these examples, we reflect on themes of context, embodiment, time, and the pedagogical value of resisting the speed of purely digital design culture. By re-integrating slow, physical processes into architectural education, we argue for a richer, more critical mode of learning aligned with both local heritage and contemporary needs. This paper is structured to first describe the Évora context and studio framework, then delve into each core method and its theoretical underpinnings, and finally discuss the outcomes and broader implications of this experimental pedagogy.

Title: The mapping of archaeological sites in portuguese territorial planning. Authors: Branco, Gertrudes; Rocha, Leonor; Covaneiro, Jaqueline Editors: Klaus Stein, Anastasia Bauch; Carmen M. Enss Abstract: “Better information leads to better decisions". This is a true premise when applied to the use of geographic information systems in spatial and urban planning, due to their ability to generate, analyse and map geo-referenced data, which is essential to support decision-making processes. Our specific objective is to create dynamic heritage inventories by combining the tools of Geographical Information Systems with an archaeological recording protocol, which compiles and updates the information known and continuously produced in a given territory, and at the same time analyses and transforms it into a robust, constantly updated, sufficiently autonomous and transversal information base that can be useful to the actors who administratively manage the territory, to citizens and to archaeologists looking for a basis for building historical and cultural knowledge.
