Share an evening with research professionals to imagine and exchange knowledge about the urban challenges facing the city of Barcelona. In a relaxed and close format, we will be able to imagine possible innovative solutions around social welfare and sustainable food.

The session will start with a brief explanation of some of the research avenues that are being carried out right now in the city and will continue with an agora open to the public to share impressions and discuss possible perspectives and approaches to research.

Afternoons in the fresh air, with built-in bar service and two hours to imagine how to transform Barcelona.
