2026 annual meeting in Portugal “BACK TO THE ROOTS”
For next year’s Annual Meeting, the ELASA community will be welcomed by local students in Portugal.
The event will take place from 28 April to 6 May, bringing us back to the country where it all began in 1990.

On April 28th we’ll meet at Terreiro do Paço in Lisbon! For the next two days we’ll stay in the capital, we’ll visit some of the most iconic gardens and then make a stop in Sintra – one of the most important historical and natural landscapes in Portugal. Then we’ll spend a day in the historic museum-city of Évora, crucial to understand how Portuguese architecture influenced Brazilian architecture. From Évora we’ll travel to Porto, the second most important metropolitan area in the country, and on May 6th we’ll end our trip in Guimarães – the first capital of Portugal, where we’ll say our goodbyes!
