Summer Assembly I THE GREAT RENOVATION: Brussels and its sustainable transition

The transition to a sustainable city poses one of the greatest challenges for many domains in Brussels, including plans, housing, mobility, public space etc.

How can we structurally organize this transition, from the people of Brussels to the different institutional scales, reaching the European institutions? What can be the role of arts and culture guiding this process? How can they collaborate with research and planning through localized innovation hubs? Lastly, what will be the role of technologies within this change? In what ways can digital and artificial intelligence, or concepts such as the ‘smart city’ be part of the solution?

Speakers: Dr. Jean-Philippe de Visscher (UCL) & Annekatrien Verdickt
Panel: Dimitri Berliner (Communa), Esra Tat ( Zero Waste) & Roeland Dudal (AWR)
