Programme 11. 6. 2025
Main programme: Rotunda, hall A | |
| 9:30 | Children and young people as agents of public space - how to give them a voice and trust Children and young people are not just the future, but active creators of today. This session focuses on concrete examples and tools on how young people can influence what is happening around them - at school, in the city and at national level. We will show examples from the Czech Republic and abroad where participation of children and youth is becoming a common part of decision-making. From school parliaments to intergenerational projects, we look for ways to strengthen young people's civic engagement and give them a real voice and responsibility. An example of youth involvement in community development will take place live at URBIS!
|
| 10:45 | Ageing is not a threat, but a challenge. How to create better cities for all? In this panel, we will focus on how a community can actively promote quality of life across generations. What does a city ready for longevity look like? How can we use data and technology to plan smarter and make services more accessible? And how do we support the work and meaningful engagement of seniors or people with disabilities? We share examples from home and abroad to find solutions that make a city a true home - regardless of age, ability or life stage. Mgr.
