Ecologies of Trust – Program Launch

Ecologies of Trust – Program Launch
Friday, June 28, 2024. 15:00–17:30
Daugavpils Fortress (Rothko Museum’s Conference Centre, Mihaila iela 3, Daugavpils)

How do more-than-human design approaches shape everyday spatial practices in the context of Daugavpils? How do the increased geopolitical tensions in the Eastern Baltic influence understanding of landscape? How do these two phenomena relate and influence each other?

Ecologies of Trust is a second phase of (Re)configuring Territories research programme, and the Program Launch event is a first step in relocating the programme to Daugavpils. The aim of the event is to reflect these questions, make connections with local inhabitants and institutions, and to situate the programme in the human and more-than-human networks for the coming years. During the next years the programme will aim to make space for design researchers and local Daugavpils communities to experiment with situated and collaborative research methods and find ways to reflect the context of eastern Baltics in dialogue.
