ACE MISSION STATEMENT
Our goal is to establish new global educational initiatives, to search for opportunities to integrate knowledge from the natural human sciences in design education, to develop resources for educators and students, and to help promote the mission of ANFA through international outreach.
Our buildings, neighborhoods, and cities directly impact our health and well-being. This basic fact is appreciated increasingly across the full range of professions involved in design and maintenance of the built environment. At the same time, we know little of how the relationship of persons and environments works in detail: how exactly our experience and behavior, emotions and engagement in the community are shaped by the built environment.
A number of scientific disciplines have been called to help us fill this gap, including most notably the disciplines allied under the umbrellas of neuroscience and cognitive science. Encounters of scientists and design professionals produce an exciting new frontier of human knowledge, and they lead to new understanding of the roles and responsibilities of the designer. The role of ACE, as a Forum, is to curate the conversation between multiple disciplines. Please see a full list of ACE GOALS at the bottom of this invitation.
