INTA34 World Urban Development Congress
Event: Regeneration of Pasaia, the fishing and commercial port of Gipuzkoa, and new infrastructure like the high-speed railway will give the city of Donostia-San Sebastian and its metropolitan area an entirely new image. Major challenges are at stake to manage successful integration of the redevelopment: how to balance rapid urban growth while retaining and enhancing the unique historic and cultural environment? Which new functions to develop on the territory? How to raise public awareness and efficiently integrate the population in the decision-making processes?
The 34th INTA Congress will explore different approaches on how development and renewal are reconciled with preservation of a vibrant cultural setting.
Keynote speakers, on site workshops, skills development for professionals, master classes, guided visits, social events, cultural and culinary experiences are all part of INTA34 Congress.
Date: 24-28 October 2010
Location: Kurzaal, Donostia-San Sebastian, Spain
Organiser: INTA in partnership with Gipuzkoa Government
