NECE- Networking European Citizenship Education 29 September – 1 October 2010, Trieste (Italy) www.nece.eu
Location: The Stazione Marittima
Congress Centre, Molo Bersaglieri 3, I-34124 Trieste
www.promotrieste.it/congressi/palazzo.aspx
This year's NECE conference intends to discuss the dramatic changes in
European cities in recent decades. Also European cities change
radically: migration and mobility undermine the cohesion in many urban
societies. Cities have become complicated entities in which ethnically,
socially and culturally segregated communities have developed. Extended
leeways for individual life designs and collective ways of living are
often linked to growing disparity and conflicts of identity and
self-assertion.
At the same time, cities provide the breeding ground for new, mostly
cultural expressions of civic participation in order to create new forms
of public spheres or civic involvement. Artistic and cultural ways of
action and interventions may inform and activate the public, new
participative ways of urban development may mobilise the citizens’
political and creative potential and support the voices of civil
society. Which opportunities and tasks for cultural and citizenship
education do result from these new forms and ways of action? May they
lead to a reconsideration of previous assumptions and interventions in
cultural and citizenship education?
Amongst the main speakers Charles Landry, founder of COMEDIA (UK), a
network of collaborators, who share thinking, ideas, projects and
initiatives concerned with city life, culture and creativity, Phil Wood
(UK) a leading expert in cultural diversity and urban development
(Intercultural Cities) as well as Paul Scheffer from the University of
Amsterdam, and Wolfgang Kaschuba from the Humboldt University Berlin.
This European conference bringing experts, architects, sociologists,
urban planners, artists and multipliers and practitioners in cultural
and citizenship education together, intends to exchange experiences from
different perspectives besides initiating a dialogue on current
challenges for the urban space as well as searching for creative
impulses for an urban cultural and citizenship education.
