Re-Negotiating Space

RNS #2 Beyond Anthropocene  — The Voice of the Planet

Anthropogenic mass has exceeded living biomass on Earth since 2020. This fundamental imbalance calls for a radical re-negotiation of the way our built environment consumes space. How can we move from governance models trapped in narratives of efficiency and exploitation to genuine agency that enables all actors—humans and nature alike—to collaboratively shape the transformation of our urban habitat?

Re-Negotiating Space (RNS) addresses this question through a series of dialogues, interactions, and interventions exploring democratic instruments for renegotiating urban spaces between human and planetary needs. The project develops new approaches, methods, and tools to transform conventional urban governance models into a form of urban-ecological democracy through active engagement of planetary perspectives as well as all population groups.

The main language of the dialogue event is English. The supporting programme is multilingual, including German. In good weather, the event will take place outdoors. We recommend travelling by public transport. A limited number of parking spaces are available outside the park.
