CULBURB, Shaping Cities - Prague
07. May 2012
An international symposium of european organizations operating in urban space. Hĺkon Iversen, President & Founder of NUDA has been invited to keynote at the symposium.
The symposium asks what the nonprofit organizations are today and questions their
role in the creation of city space.
Are
they non-elected groups of interest promoting their own interpretation
of public good? Or do they represent a litmus paper of the level of
democracy in the society?
Invited organizations transform the city
space on different levels from local to the whole-city projects, with
a narrow or global point of view.
On the ground of this
symposium a documentation of such organizations from whole Europe will
take place. The creation of a unifying web database will enable to have
an overview of the status quo, but mainly to have a mutual
interconnection among the organizations with similar aims and sharing
of their experiences.
