Mumbai to Host the UIA 2027 International Architecture Forum

03/03/2025

The UIA International Forum 2027 is set to take place in Mumbai, India, from 12 to 16 November 2027, at the Jio World Convention Centre. Chosen as the host city during the 2024 UIA General Assembly in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Mumbai will welcome architects, urban planners, researchers, and policymakers from around the world to explore the theme of “Urban Regeneration.”

Organised by the Indian Institute of Architects (IIA) and under the auspices of the UIA , this fourth edition of the UIA International Architecture Forum follows successful gatherings in Baku (2019), Madrid (2022), and Kuala Lumpur (2024).

Held every three years between UIA Congresses, the Forum serves as a dynamic platform for global dialogue on urgent architectural and urban challenges. More concise than the UIA Congress, it fosters focused discussions, knowledge exchange, and cross-sector collaboration to shape the future of the built environment.

Key Topics:

  • Urban renewal and sustainable development
  • Social inclusion and financing urban projects
  • Infrastructure resilience in a changing climate

Stay tuned for updates as Mumbai prepares to host this landmark event, driving forward innovation and solutions for cities worldwide.
