School of Urban Practices


Drawing on the evolving body of trans-disciplinary urban knowledge, urban research, and urban activism, School of Urban Practices will conduct advanced educational work that redefines design, architecture and urbanism as a field of transformative activity. Selected students will seek the ways how to improve everyday environment of the devastated urban neighborhoods whether through public policy, mediation, urban planning and architecture design, or any other forms of design that involves citizens from the very beginning of the project.  By working continually on the site for the public interest and by exchanging aspirations with local community entrepreneurs, School of Urban Practices will develop innovative strategies and projects based on critical engagement with contemporary issues of urban commons.
