Kuratorene for neste års arkitekturfestival har tatt med seg debattformatet Turncoats fra London til Oslo. Med andre ord, velkommen til norgespremiere på en veldig annerledes debatt på @kulturhusetioslo under @oslourbanarena! NB. Foregår på engelsk. 

\\
Endless economic growth: engine of human ingenuity, key to prosperity and only defence against the severe ecological crises ahead. Or a mythical trap driving cities into a spiral of unsustainable unjust developments depleting human flourishing, wrecking the planet and impossible to perpetuate. 

Turncoats is a provocative global debating society turning public discourse on its head, shaking and serving over ice. It is off the record, offline and riddled with devil’s advocates hiding in plain sight. Prepare for big arguments from surprising places, where the only allegiances are to the spirit of uncompromising urban debate.

Participants to be announced!
The event is in English.

TURNCOATS OSLO: MORE IS MORE is a breakout session from the conference Oslo Urban Arena (OUA). By pinpointing the problems we face in the future of city development, OUA set up a framework for discussing and solving these problems by gathering experts in the field, from all over the world. 

OSLO ARCHITECTURE TRIENNALE is the Nordic region's main architecture festival and a global arena for tackling architectural and urban challenges. Next year’s triennale, OAT 2019, will challenge the supremacy of economic growth as the basis of contemporary societies and investigate alternatives. The festival will explore the architecture of a new economy in which human and ecological flourishing matter most – the architecture of Degrowth.
