Conference, December 2015

The Conference will focus on Berlin and other German cities as case-studies to discuss issues central to the project, such as participation, citizenship, urban planning, public space, audience development and art for social change, in order to provide the theoretical background for the residencies that will take place in 2016 and 2017. The specific approach and list of speakers will be decided in collaboration with ZKU and according to the preparatory research and networking that will take place in Thessaloniki and Berlin throughout 2015.

The residencies will address following issues: Lived Architecture, City Branding, Creative Cluster, Oral Histories, Sustainable Tourism, International Networking, Envisioning the Future.
