Let’s Talk Architecture & Climate Adaptation: Italian and Danish Solutions

Danish Architecture Center

A cross-cultural dialogue on sustainable solutions in Italian and Danish urban development

Palazzo Francesco Turati

We invite you to join us for a Danish-Italian dialogue on how architecture can contribute to design our cities to cope with the drastically changing climate. As climate patterns change, so must the role of buildings and settlements. How our cities interact with their environment, protecting especially vulnerable residents, will be crucial to building strong communities.Through a cross-cultural dialogue we question how architecture, and the built environment can foster new experimental ways to help us adapt to the changing world. Both high- and low-tech solutions to environmental design could be key in making buildings smarter and more self-sufficient, but what approaches do we have at hand? And what solutions can make the biggest impact?Join the talk with insights from Paulo Russo, architecht and design lead at Stefano Boeri Architetti (IT), Ole Schrøder; founding partner at Tredje Natur (DK), Simona Collarini; director – General Urban Planning Sector, City of Milan (IT) and Lykke Leonardsen; Head of program for Resilient and Sustainable City Solutions at City of Copenhagen (DK). The talk will be moderated by journalist Michael Booth.P﻿rogram<ul><li>1﻿0.00: Registration and coffee</li><li>1﻿0.30: Welcome by Carol Monticelli, Politecnico di Milan</li><li>1﻿0.35: Introduction by the Danish ambassador in Italy, Anders Carsten Damsgaard</li><li>1﻿0.45: Panel part 1: Paulo Russo &amp; Ole Schrøder </li><li>1﻿1.15: Short break</li><li>11.25: Panel part 2: Simona Collarini &amp; Lykke Leonardsen </li><li>1﻿1.55: Panel part 3: Joint panel with all panelists + Q&A</li><li>1﻿2.25: Closing remarks</li></ul>This talk is organized by <a href="https://dac.dk/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Danish Architecture Center</a> in cooperation with <a href="https://italien.um.dk/it" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Embassy of Denmark in Rome, Italy</a> <a href="https://www.maisondudanemark.dk/en/the-house-of-denmark/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"></a>, <a href="https://www.polimi.it/en" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Politecnico di Mila</a>n, <a href="https://uia2023cph.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">UIA2023CPH</a>, and <a href="https://www.creativedenmark.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Creative Denmark</a>.
