Building Biospheres
Bas Smets
What can we learn from the networks in forests? How can urban nature achieve the same integration, biodiversity and sustainability? Urban nature (parks,…) is above all at the service of people, the urban dweller and her need for relaxation and rest. How can we look beyond the inherently anthropocentric nature of these places and think from nature itself? We let two experts, landscape architect Bas Smets and Italian biologist and professor of botany Stefano Mancuso have their say.
Lecture will be in English.
