LCP Launch on Annual Congress AcademyofUrbanism

 

The LearningCitiesPlatform is launched during a workshop as part of the Annual Congress of the Academy of Urbanism in Bradford UK. Off course we do a workshop and not a lecture. We will have visiting members and participants experience HOW to Collaborate and make real use of Networking in Europe. And we won’t talk theory but show examples of exchanging knowledge and collaboration in Urbanism throughout Europe,  that have really worked in:

 

The first Learning Cities Platform Event in Utrecht, June 2012 with Bordeaux EurAtlantique, Hamburg HafenCity and Utrecht Station District (host) as Learning Cities. Tampere, Malmö and Cardiff were reference Cities who reflected on the presentations of the Learning Cities. These Cities did not present the usual stuff on facts & figures, but presented their plans, ambitions and achievements on the themes Change, Connect Collaborate, Communicate and Control.

From this first Event Learning Sessions were organised with Hamburg-Malmö, Tampere and Utrecht  Stadsgesprekken (City Talks) with AORTA Utrecht (Architecture & Urbanism Platform) with the second to be held at 10 June.

The Academy of Urbanism is a great platform of skilled, hands-om professionals who’s aim it is to exchange knowledge, make links between various projects and collaborate.
