At #UF24 in Rotterdam, you may have spotted a roaming art exhibition in the halls of Rotterdam Ahoy! 🎨🖌️👀   The exhibition — which depicts exciting visions of eight global cities — was part of a two-year project, led by the Institute for Human Rights and Business (IHRB) on just transitions in the #builtenvironment.    Recognising that "just transitions” are context specific, the project brought together civil society, policymakers, academics, & business representatives in each city...all to imagine what a just transition could mean. 🤔   ✨ Eight local, young artists were commissioned to bring these visions to life. ✨   Did you see the exhibition?

Imagine a 100-games box, but instead of classic board games, it's filled with urban hacking tools for city-makers! We're teaming up with the Spanish collective Basurama Asociación and Brussels-based Urban Foxes to develop this ultimate toolkit for creative urban interventions. From October 15th to 19th, we'll be meeting in Madrid to brainstorm and test these tools. Want to be part of this exciting initiative? We might be inviting a limited number of participants to join us in Madrid. If you're interested in shaping the future of urban hacking, send us a short email at mail@popupcity.net before August 4th and tell us why you'd be a perfect fit! #urbanhacking #citymaking #popupcity #madrid #workshop #collaboration #collectives #basurama #urbanfoxes #urbanism #urbanplanning #placemaking
