Superilla
Barcelona
The
AfterCovid
City
The restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic have highlighted the need for urban development that fosters proximity and reinforces the attributes that define urban life: Diversity, density and human exchange.
Programme
Over the course of the three-day Open Talks Superilla Barcelona, we will discuss and examine the role of public space for recovery, touching on both ‘the why’ and ‘the how’ with the aim of bringing insights into practice.
We will collectively identify what it takes for a city to thrive and look at how to create urban environments based on a strong social fabric, stable economic structures, innovative, easy-to-access bureaucracy models, sustainable transportation systems and more.
The programme consists of a number of sessions that, while focusing on a particular subject related to the urban sphere, discuss the issues both from a theoretical approach and case study analysis.

The Charter
With the AfterCovid.City initiative, we want to bring together the world’s leading urban experts to explore what we have learned from the pandemic and how we can use these lessons to improve our cities. In October, we invite you to participate in the co-creation workshops to work with urban experts from different sectors to create the "The Charter of Public Space for Recovery" in your city.
This workshop is designed to gather and reflect on your city's experience during the pandemic and to reaffirm the commitments that the city needs to make to ensure post-pandemic recovery, with a focus on public space. The local reflections and findings are summarised by the AfterCovid.City team in the joint document "The Charter of Public Space for Recovery", a tool for collaboration and global engagement to improve the quality of people's lives and public space in the cities of the future.
