Porto Innovation Hub continues with the series of debates of the "Innovation in the transformation of the city" programme.

This time, the venue receives a debate themed on architecture and urbanism.  Tuesday's double session opens at 4 pm to amplify the discussion on permanent versus temporary architecture. Andreia Garcia, Juliana Trentic and Guilherme Blanc are the invited speakers of the debate, which will be moderated by architects Filipa Frois and Hugo Reis, from the Porto studio FAHR 012.3.

The second session of the day will debate key issues regarding urbanism, starting at 6:00 pm. The conversation, moderated by Councilor Manuel Correia de Fernandes, will launch the debate on how urbanism can tackle the city's transformation challenges.

Admission is free to both sessions that will take place in the auditorium of the Porto Innovation Hub, next to Porto City Hall, in the Post Office Building.

The collection of contents of these and upcoming debates will be part of a Manifesto under the title "Innovation in the transformation of the city", that will bring together the key issues, comments and reviews to be offered to the community.
