Continuing the international dialogue and cooperation initiated in 2015, we are pleased to announce that the 11th FIPA – International Forum on Architectural Heritage Brazil-Portugal will be held in 2026 in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina. The capital of Santa Catarina won the bid to host the event, which will take place in partnership with IPHAN, CAU/BR, and UA/PT.
The selection of Florianópolis highlights a unique territory defined by the integration of natural landscapes, vernacular architecture, and Azorean cultural heritage. This setting provides a privileged environment to reflect on heritage in coastal and island areas, where culture, memory, and sustainability intersect in the face of challenges posed by urban dynamics and tourism.
