The Naomi Milgrom Foundation today revealed the full program for Living Cities Forum 2021, shifting to an online event in light of Melbourne?s current restrictions and uncertainty. The event will be streamed on Friday 23 July for free to the general public via the Living Cities Forum website.
The program will feature keynote addresses, panel discussions and Q&A?s, followed by the reveal of MAP studio (Venice)?s design for the 2021 MPavilion. Newly confirmed guest, artist & environmental engineer Tega Brain will join the day?s lineup of celebrated speakers, including Bruce Pascoe, Timothy Morton, Anupama Kundoo, Maarten Gielen and Sarah Lynn Rees. Addressing the Living Cities Forum 2021 theme The Long View, each speaker will consider how different perspectives on time can affect the growth of our cities and the shape of our futures. “This year?s Living Cities Forum will challenge us to think beyond the here and now ? how today?s decisions impact the future of our cities and communities. Creating a sustainable legacy is integral to our projects. It?s fantastic to see Living Cities tackle these important considerations for design and explore new opportunities for our industry and our state.? Angela Skandarajah, CEO Development Victoria.
