Seminar/workshop • Budapest
Industrial Heritage Workshop
The one-day long online workshop in September will be a follow-up event of the summer university and the networking activities carried out by the project partners. It will offer the opportunity to fully concentrate on the problems and challenges of the Visegrad countries with regard to the reuse of industrial heritage. It will also reflect on new challenges and use the occasion to reflect on how the reuse possibilities of industrial sites have been affected by the COVID epidemic and the ensuing economic and social crisis.
The workshop will be online and one day long - as a precautionary measure in the current insecure environment - and will mix an academic and a policy focus. It will specifically look at the issue of industrial heritage reuse in the Visegrad 4 countries, and will be designed to welcome practitioners, municipal employees, NGOs and academics alike.
Much effort will be put into creating an environment that allows the cross- fertilization between representatives from different disciplines, allowing to build a common language and strengthening the network that has been developed since the summer course.
The questions raised and discussed, and the knowledge generated during the summer course will serve as a solid background of the discussion during the workshop. A summary of the workshop will be transferred into an online publication, that will also help the dissemination of the project results and their sustainability.
