Video debate:
In these times of great change and as part of the Design the Transition series, the Braillard Architects Foundation, Metrolab.Brussels and LASUR/EPFL invite you to an exceptional discussion session to open up the ecological and resilient horizon of our societies.
- How to interpret the current unprecedented situation through the prism of the ecological crisis?
- What is to be learned about the state and fate of our urban lives?
- What are the indicators of resilience and conflicts of interest, where to place the cursor on common good?
- What is to be left behind, what logics need to be confronted or consolidated, what principles to embrace and what tools to manufacture?
