Masterclass in Adaptive Intelligence: ARUP x African Futures Institute
As part of their Total Architecture Series, ARUP hosted a landmark event which brought together visionary minds from the African Futures Institute and Arup’s team to foster a vibrant exchange of ideas. The heart of the discussion revolved around a critical question: What can Africa teach the world about adaptation?
Yemí was part of the panel that explored the unique perspectives and opportunities within the African context that can shape the future of the built environment. This conversation urged architects, engineers, landscape architects, and urban designers to think creatively about resilience, conservation, and the interplay between artificial and adaptive intelligence.
The distinguished panel were: Prof Lesley Lokko OBE, Dr Patrick Ata, Tessa Brunette, Fred Mukonoweshuro, Tara Gbolade and Yemí Aládérun
