The UBC Centre for Advanced Wood Processing (CAWP) is hosting a symposium regarding the Future of Prefabrication in collaboration with the UBC School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture (SALA), British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) and University of Northern British Columbia (UNBC).
