New European Bauhaus | Emilia Romagna chapter

The Future Food Institute (FFI), an international ecosystem founded in Bologna with
deep local roots and a founding member of the NEB Local Chapter Emilia-Romagna,
organized a meeting on February 20th with a delegation of 10 Japanese professionals
at Scuderia Living Lab in Bologna.

The first edition of the FRANCO Festival took place on October 24th and 25th in the Apennine setting of Lama di Reno, in the province of Bologna (Emilia-Romagna). The event was organised by ART-ER in collaboration with Lo Stato dei Luoghi, Municipality of Bologna, BIS – Bologna Innovation Square, Muncipality of Marzabotto and Unione dell’Appennino. It was two intense days of talks, workshops, performances, and networking. The former paper mill became a laboratory for policies and practices on culture as a lever for urban transformation and social cohesion.

In October 14-15 we were in Brussels with other representatives of European NEB Chapters to promote and discuss the role of Chapters.
