Event

The City is Not for Selling but for Living

Collective Architectures is an open, constantly growing international network of individuals and groups interested in participative construction of the urban environment. Since 2007 a symposium has been held in a different city each year with the aim of strengthening the network and consolidating alternative ways – from people and for people – of creating cities that differ from the official model. The 2014 gathering is to be held in Barcelona from 6 to 13 July with the theme “The City is Not for Selling but for Living”, an essential idea, especially today and in a city like Barcelona which is beset by a host of human and urban problems caused by the global capitalist system.

In the activity that has been programmed to be held at the CCCB, new groups that are joining Collective Architectures will be presented and possible ways of reinforcing the international network will be discussed.
