METABOLISM, Symposium of the greenlab
greenlab is an interdisciplinary research platform that supports and drives sustainable design strategies at the weissensee school of art and design berlin. On 18 April, greenlab is extending an open invitation to a symposium entitled METABOLISM, in which artists, designers, researchers, town planners, ecologists and activists are going to deal with the interplay between nature and culture: with urban green spaces and the networked resources in our cities and their hinterlands. At a time in which cities are confronted with unprecedented challenges in connection with climate change, the loss of bio-diversity and the management of resources, urban green spaces are becoming more and more important. They are not just aesthetically appealing additions to our cityscape; they are, above all, a significant constituent part of resilient, sustainable and liveable cities. In the course of this symposium, participants will be able to enter into interdisciplinary dialogue, to exchange innovative ideas and to develop new collaborations that aim to create a more sustainable and integrated future for the city and the countryside. Registration is required.
