Debate: The role of Urban Design
22 February 2022 16:00 till 17:30 - Location: Online - By: Communication BK | Add to my calendar
On 22 February, the section of Urban Design organizes the public debate 'Today's role of the urban designer' as part of the series 'The Metropolitan Club'.
The Metropolitan Club is an event series hosted by the Section of Urban Design. Students, professionals, experts, and educators come together to explore on-site projects and engage with the Dutch practice.
Following the line or arguments set out in the previous Metropolitan Club debates and drawing on the Delft tradition of urban design, the third Metropolitan Club session is dedicated to questions concerning "Today's role of the urban designer.“
We want to discuss with practitioners, students, as well as acclaimed international academics their views on the future role of the profession of urban design and education.
