Join us this week to the seminar on Gaza Seaport, promoted by UMAR - Union of Mediterranean Architects - Architectes de la Méditerranée
The series is the warm-up to the international workshop that is going to take place in Amman.
Today's first session brought up a thick debate: what is the role of a project within the current situation in Gaza? How can a project be a tool for supporting the indigenous process of deciding how to rebuild, what, and what is the balance between the past and the new? What part should the trauma play in this?
Indeed, from its very start, the collective work on this project has already helped confront dilemmas, ambiguities, and deep interrogations.
