Forum Europan
On 18 and 19 October at the Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Madrid (ETSAM), EUROPAN held its Inter-Session Forum (E17-E18).
More than 300 people, including 69 teams awarded of the Europan 17 session, and representatives from 36 cities were able to exchange with experts and organizers around the Europan 18 theme “RE-SOURCE”.
On the first day, visits to recent projects of "Resourced Madrid" preceded a discussion between young teams on how to take care of Inhabited Environments. Then a conference by Cristina Gamboa, from the cooperative architecture agency LACOL, introduced a presentation of the award-winning projects at E17 in the form of a pecha-kucha.
On the second day, the theme of E18 was presented by a video, followed by a debate and Europan projects in progress serving as references to understand what a process is from idea to implementation. It concluded with a presentation by elected officials and experts of the upcoming sites classified into thematic families.

The Forum allowed for very rich exchanges and to share a common culture around the developments of the project in the era of climate change and eco-bifurcations and made it possible to prepare the launch of the Europan 18 session which will take place on March 3rd, 2025.
