EASA`s first european architectural event

EASA`s first european architectural event
Towards the sustainable city
sunday the 22nd of september is international car free day

I am proposing that the EASA community, (european architectural students assembly), is more than a few hundred students gathering, communicating and doing things for 2 weeks during the summer. I believe that it is a full time living community who can communicate and do things all the time. Thereby actually doing more progressive things, having a wider EASA body (as there are many who just cant get to that summer event) and communicating about more and more things.

In short EASA becomes more effective in bringing about positive architectural change

sunday the 22nd of september is international car free day.
most european cities will zone off part of the city and provide free public transport.
In dublin, ireland this will happen too

Many of us here in ireland are planning more than that
We have organised irelands third free street party another “reclaim the streets”
We will take to the streets and have a major party
The picture above is of the last one in may where @ 1000 people partied all day
We will continue to do this, it will grow and grow
This is architectural direct action; making better cities
Below is a picture of the berlin love parade
That started in 1989 with 150 people dancing on the streets
Now you get around 1,500,000. People dancing on the streets

I propose that the n.c`s from all countries organize as many people as possible in their own country and if there is “reclaim the streets”, participate and document it. Then report back to this article after for further discussion about sustainable cities. If there is no RTS in your country, contact you friends and make one

Have FUN
