Seminar Series: Programme for 2021

In November 2020, we started the joint seminar series of the Anthropolis Chair and the Future Cities Lab. In the first session, Chair Holder Jakob Puchinger introduced the bi-weekly format and gave a short presentation of current projects and initiatives of the Chair. The second seminar on 7 December 2020 focused on the relationship between urbanisation and mobility (recording). Led by urbanist and PhD candidate Tjark Gall, the session explored how urbanisation and urban mobility influence and shape each other. The discussion centred around some key concepts, events and trends of the past, the present, and the future. The following discussion explored some individual futures. With over 50 participants each, the seminars were a great start and we want to thank the participants and look forward to the seminars and discussions next year! The programme for the first half of 2021 is shown below:
