Based on the protocol signed between the Rectorate of Istanbul Medeniyet University and the Dominican Study Institute (Dost-I), this project aims to foster collaborations in various fields of social sciences, especially, architecture, urban and cultural sociology.
The project also benefits from the collaboration of the Italian Cultural Institute and the Depo Pergamon architectural education initiative.

Within the scope of the project, a twelve-month conference series is planned where the design, project and implementation phases of contemporary religious buildings in the Mediterranean world will be discussed on an interdisciplinary basis. The buildings listed below will be analyzed within the framework of contemporary architectural theories and sociality by the architects who designed them or by academics who are specialized in architectural theory. The target audience for the project includes especially architects, academics from various disciplines of social sciences, students but also anyone interested in the subject.
