[FoME] Einladung Work in Progress / Syria

[Klaas Glenewinkel]

Invitation
Work in Progress / Syria
 
'Syria: reconstruction in the midst of destruction' is the inaugural talk as part of the series WORK IN PROGRESS. A new series of talks organised by MiCT and hosted at Spike Berlin.

The first session will explore the fact that more than 6.3 million Syrians (thirty per cent of the population) have been forced into internal displacement in a hope to return home to their villages and cities this year. Thousands who lived in Syria’s neighbouring countries, in North Africa and in Europe, moved back home in the past months. Some by their own choice and others being sent back. There are, however, more than 13.5 million Syrians who are living in poverty and in need of basic assistance such as food, water and sanitation, education, and psycho-social support. 

We would like to talk about the future of the country and discuss the challenges and opportunities for reconstruction, as well as learn about projects from journalists, urban planners, artists, and architects working in the area.

Moderation by Fares Al-Hassan.

The event is hosted by MiCT and is funded by the BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt.
