UPCOMING EVENTS
For the 4th edition of Back to School with… we’ve invited One Planet Port to curate a series around the topic of Architecture of Transition of Global Trade looking at the future of the port of Rotterdam. In this series we will focus on the port of Rotterdam and its pivotal role in steering the momentum of change toward a sustainable global trade and transportation system. Despite the recognition of the imperative to align with climate targets and adhere to planetary boundaries, the pace of change has fallen short of what is dictated by these limits. This underscores the necessity for a cohesive and systemic approach to address ports, advocating for a just and equitable transition that confronts global inequities and builds local people power.

This School’s Out! with Wouter Vanstiphout is the book presentation of ‘Autonoom: 100% Carel Weeber’ a detailed architect’s biography and a richly illustrated architectural monograph, bringing together life and work of Weeber. According to Vanstiphout, the common thread in this story is “that from the beginning of his professional career, Carel Weeber consciously adopted the attitude of an outsider and paradoxically, through the almost theatrical elaboration of this attitude, has had a great influence on Dutch architecture and its institutions.” The evening includes a film program, followed by drinks and bites.
