European Foundation Center (EFC) – Annual General Assembly and Conference (AGA): Sustainable Cities, Foundations and Our Urban Future

Copenhagen Solutions

The partnership between the City of Copenhagen, the Danish Architecture Center and Realdania, showed a wide range of initiatives and projects which are helping to transform Copenhagen.

The capital is already well on its way to its target. The projects are evidence of this, and include: the revitalisation of former industrial areas and the development of new urban districts with innovative architecture, sustainable heating, and a well-integrated transport system.

By demonstrating sustainable solutions in Copenhagen, the exhibition served as inspiration for other cities.

The focus of the conference was sustainability, but not only from an energy point of view, where it is all about being green. It also focused on the social, cultural and economic aspects of sustainability. It was expected that more than 500 foundations and associates was gathered in the Bella Center to discuss challenges in growth, housing, unemployment, education, cultural heritage, urban planning and the environment.

Copenhagen Solutions was on show during the conference in conjunction with Realdania‘s participation and presence.

The conference took place at the Bella Center from 30 May  – 1 June 2013.
