Design Workshop with Nikos Katsikis - Urban Agroecology UetlibergWorkshop ETH Zürich

We were delighted to be joined by Dr. Nikos Katsikis for a design workshop on the territorial common project of Urban Agroecology in Uetliberg. The workshop centred around the collaboration of all the students in bringing together all five sites of the semester and envisioning a common map which would illustrate their complete vision for Agroecology in the city of Zürich with a focus on Uetliberg.

Nikos Katsikis is an urbanist and educator working at the intersection of critical urban theory, design, and geospatial analysis. His research investigates the spatial dimensions of urban metabolism and seeks to develop alternative models for their socially and ecologically just reconfigurations. He is currently Assistant Professor at the Department of Urbanism, Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands affiliated researcher at Urban Theory Lab, University of Chicago. He holds a Doctorate from Harvard GSD (2016) where he also served as Instructor in Urban Planning and Design and was on the editorial board of the journal New Geographies.
