Tolentini, Aula Magna

organized by Massimo Rossetti and Agata Tonetti

 

The conference "We do care. Architecture and design for the elderly and for people with disabilities. A confrontation between Dutch and Italian contexts" starts from the recent Memorandum of Agreement signed between Università Iuav di Venezia and the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The purpose of the conference is a confrontation between the Netherlands and Italian realities on the issues of architectural design, open spaces and design for the elderly and people with disabilities, one of the most important topics in the current socio-cultural scenario of the European Union. The conference, entirely in English, includes two sessions: in the morning, there will be the speeches of the Dutch guests; in the afternoon, after the lunch break, the speeches of the Italian guests. At the end of these, there will be a brief round table among all the speakers and the public.
