Wednesday: Francesc Muñoz, lecturer of Urban Geography and director of the Observatory for Urbanisation (UAB) will offer a seminar on sustainable human habitats:
We humans have built cities for our security and comfort. But the lack of a global plan has made them uncomfortable and, according to some parametres, unhealthy. How can we recover the urban surroundings we have transformed? What relation must cities have with their landscape? How do we make the «natural» landscape enter the city?
