6th Bernardo Secchi Working Seminar
The Transition as a project: Space, Life, Politics

Les Journées d’études Bernardo Secchi (JBS) ont été lancées par la Fondation Braillard Architectes en 2015 en collaboration avec le Laboratoire d’urbanisme de l’ENAC/EPFL, en l’honneur du grand urbaniste Italien. Elles invitent les chercheurs.ses, les professionnels.les et le grand public à croiser leurs regards sur le futur des villes et des territoires au prisme de la transition écologique.
