The Estonian-Latvian co-operation project "Est-Lat urban activists" is initiated by Linnalabor (EE) and the developers of SocMap (LV) with the aim of bringing together the neighbouring countries’ experts of everything urban. The cooperation project consists of Est-Lat urbanists' summer days in 2011, a study trip to Riga for Estonian participants and a study trip to Tartu for Latvian participants in 2012.
Urban Institute Riga (LV) is organising the Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian urbanists' summer days 2012. This year the annual event has the nature of a smaller, invitation-based post-summer gathering.
From the invite: The URBANISTS' SUMMER DAYS 2012 is an event in a series of pan-Baltic meetings of urban activists in order to establish a strong tradition of collaboration. The tradition was initiated by Linnalabor (EE) back in 2010 forming close ties with an Urban Institute (LV) thus bringing together a pan-Baltic network of urban experts and practitioners from fields like: architecture, planning, culture, art, social activism etc. This year we move onwards inviting and embracing the Lithuanian colleagues in our midst. We aim towards a cross-border bonding, retrospection and evaluation of the first few years in Baltic urban activism projects, as well as generating the ideas for the upcoming period. However, be assured that a lot of fun is to be expected.
