Intensive Learning Workshop 1
Location: Sheffield, UK

This 5-day intensive programme will bring together researchers and practitioners from all partner institutions to co-design a pedagogical framework aiming to make the reception and inclusion of forced migrants and refugees integral to teaching practice in the fields of architecture and urban design & planning.
Workshop sessions will be complemented by seminars aimed at exchanging aspects of the research carried out so far – in relation to both the reception of migrants and refugees in selected EU cities, and current learning & teaching practices in the areas of design and hospitality. These will be supported by visits to Sheffield-based non-profits working on migration issues, and talks by experts in the field.
