Learning unit contents

Specific theme (urban/landscape) with cross-cutting relationships.
The workshop enables students to experiment with a project that raises urban development and landscape issues on several scales, in an intensive and exclusive way. Students from both urban and landscape specialisation courses will have the opportunity to work together.  They will be asked to understand, experiment with and promote the value of public and unbuilt spaces through the project.
The subject of the workshop is rooted in contemporary issues and, more often than not, responds to requests for joined up working from different actors (municipalities, non-profit organisations,...). 

Learning outcomes of the learning unit

This approach allows students to: - study a region facing a contemporary problem; - discover realities on the ground with the help of local actors; - act, identify and plan in interaction with decision-makers and residents; - work alongside and interview residents and decision-makers through the project.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills
