2018 Global Seminar - Medellin Practicum Studio
MOBILITY MOVILIDAD
STUDIO ENVIRONMENT
The Medellin Practicum: Planning Informality has been organized as an international collaboration between the ENVD program, Emerson College, Global Pathways Summer Program, Mobility Medellin: Art, Research, and Social Change, the School of Architecture and Planning at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia in Medellin, the planning council of Manatiales de Paz in the Municipality of Bello, and the community who started to settle in this neighborhood in 2009.
WORKING WITH THE COMMUNITY
This hands-on workshop environment enabled students to generate quick ideas and strategies. Through photographs, video-recordings, lectures, interviews, city walks, site visits and informative conversations with faculty, public officials and professionals of city making, students will be able to start gathering knowledge on urban synergies and successful projects on the city; they will be able to learn from the MdP board the goals and projects of the community, and with your own interests choose within the different lines of investigation that will continue to be researched through mapping and design.
