Subject
This theoretical and applied research proposal considers the participation of a State and a University in the event “International Architecture Exhibition La Biennale di Venezia” as an opportunity to bring into play multidisciplinary skills in research, in extended training and in relations with “other” territories, activating cooperation strategies in a defined and identity-based context, enhancing the ability of the proposing research units to integrate with local communities and to carry out, in real time, action-research activities.
With the aim of experimenting with new forms of networking between heterogeneous communities, geographically and temporally distant, the project concentrates its action within a specific space in which the tools that the different design disciplines offer will converge.
The space will be identified within the urban fabric of the city of Venice, which next year will host the Architecture Biennale, which has as its theme the imagination of a more equitable and optimistic shared future.
