Responsive Cities: Collective Intelligence Design

IAAC is pleased to announce the Responsive Cities Symposium 2023. This year’s edition focuses on “Collective Intelligence Design”, within the framework of the Green Skills for Cities project, co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union and coordinated by IAAC’s Advanced Architecture Group.

The Symposium will take place in Barcelona from 27th-28th November 2023, and will explore topics related to an emerging collective intelligence paradigm in the processes of city making that empowers the applications of co-creation, following generative processes of both the living and the machine.

As part of the Symposium, IAAC and the Green Skills for Cities Project are launching two calls:
