Since the event deals with contradictions, it is possible that certain content could possibly be perceived as incriminating.

Together in contradictions: The right to the city is fought for and made by many with the means of the arts, design, planning and action – in short, urban practice.

Urban practice addresses global challenges at the local level. In this way, Urban Practice creates and networks spaces in which the demand for the right to centrality is negotiated. Located in local structures, Urbane Praxis allows demands to be directly experienced in public space.

At the suggestion of the Council for the Arts, the Initiative Urbane Praxis was founded in 2020 with project partners throughout Berlin who are developing new structural proposals for these challenges at the interface of civil society actors, administration and politics.

The now published 11 Theses on the Way to an Urban Practice Manifesto (editorial team: Jochen Becker, Anna Schäffler, Simon Sheikh) complement the many-voiced Glossary of Urban Praxis (now also online) and are the preliminary conclusion of the workshop conferences of the initiative Urban Practice SITUATION BERLIN, which networked locations and actors of Urban Practice.

So how can new forms of living together in the city be implemented that draw on the hidden histories and fragments of the past, articulate current problems, and orient themselves toward the future? Conferences in Vienna, Rome, Stuttgart or Hanover actively take up the idea of Urban Practice. Now, transnational city networks of “drawing circles”, a “Union of Urban Practice”, a “House of Urban Cultures” or an “IBA of UP” could offer forms of future cooperation.
