Exploring Urban Ecologies through Collaborative Participation
This event has been rescheduled for autumn 2025. As part of the revised programme, we will organise a panel discussion focused on co-exploring how more-than-human actors within urban ecologies can be meaningfully involved in the design process. The panel will draw on the evolving field of more-than-human design – an emergent, interdisciplinary practice that brings together perspectives from design, ecology, sociology, urban planning and critical theory to reimagine urban environments as shared spaces among humans and nonhumans alike (Forlano, 2017). More information and details about the panel and participants will be shared in due course.
Date: TBD
Time: 18.00– 20.00
