2023 is the European Year of Skills. What competencies do we need to work carefully with designed living environments in our time and to meet future challenges?
During the conference, we will gain insight into the current and future needs for skills and collaboration within the fields of architecture, design, art, and cultural heritage. We will hear inspiring examples from our Nordic neighbors and from Sweden, and we will also discuss challenges and success factors.
Plus, we announce the winners of the ‘Årets strålkastare’ award – recognizing those who’ve set the bar high in the field of Designed Living Environments.
