ARCHITECTURE OF EDUCATION: COMMUNITIES AND INNOVATIONS

In 2015, the Architecture Fund and the Architecture Faculty, Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, organised the first round of lectures on educational architecture dedicated to the problems of creating educational spaces. During this course, five speakers from the Netherlands, Germany, United Kingdom, Italy and Belgium presented their experiences, achievements and challenges related to the architecture of educational spaces.

This event has encouraged examination of the experiences of the old Wwestern democracies and extensive debates among architecture, education and public administration specialists responsible for the development and transformation of educational environment, as well as interested representatives of local communities. A lot of attention was paid to the coherence between architecture and learning paradigms, and their transformations.

In continuation of the analysis made on the issues related to the changes of educational architecture, a new round of the Architecture [Discussion] Fund, the 22nd series of talks, is planned to discuss the role of the city, state, school, university communities and the private participation in the development and administration of schools, their networks and university campuses more extensively.

The 22nd series of talks of Architecture Fund are supported by Lithuanian Council for Culture, Tarkett, Embassy of the Kingdom Netherlands

The conversations are arranged in collaboration with VGTU Faculty of Architecture.
