This is an exciting chance to be part of a Europe-wide initiative aimed at supporting cities in their journey to becoming climate-neutral by 2030. Through international collaborations, students will explore the intersection of aesthetics, sustainability, and inclusion as essential elements of a just transition towards green city futures.

The group starting in September 2024 will have the unique opportunity to travel to Milan to participate in the CrAFt Student Think/Do Tank and the ELIA Biennial Conference: Arts Plural.

Members of the CrAFt Core Group will:

Collaborate online and in-person with fellow students from Amsterdam, Bologna, Prague, and Trondheim.

Host a Think/Do Tank event for local and international students in Milan on 19 November 2024.

Support European cities, including their own, in becoming climate neutral.

Propose participatory models for urban transformation, inspired by artistic methods and artistic intelligence.

Enhance their professional skills through interdisciplinary work and international collaboration.

CrAFt is looking for students who:

Have a strong desire to contribute to their cities’ transformation.
