Next year's international conference for urban and regional planning, REAL CORP 2026, will be held in Vienna from Monday, 23rd of March, to Wednesday, 25th of March 2026. In cooperation with TU Wien, Institute of Spatial Planning, Research Unit Urban and Regional Research, the CORP initiators are launching a special call for papers on two crucial topics: Governance and Planning Approaches for Transforming Regions and Housing Affordability. There will be special presentation sessions at REAL CORP 2026, to promote these topics. The special call for papers is open until the 5th of December 2025.
Years after the first CORP conference was held in 1996, the theme is still relevant to planners, politicians, and sociologists, as well as technicians. The Austrian-German journalist Andreas Schiller, who published in the field of urbanism, states, euphoric about the conference's realm and visibility, “The website corp.at is neither hip nor the latest trend in digital design, … That offers advantages. Under the “CORP since 1996” button, for example, you’ll find all the papers accepted since the beginning … The spectrum is thematically and geographically extremely extensive, so that this digital archive alone deserves admiration!”
Conference and Call are processed in English. Please submit your abstract by 5 December 2025 23:59 CET (UTC+1). For submission, you are intended to use MY.CORP only.
