  • Cities for All

Cities for All Helsinki is an international conference aimed at bringing together a diverse range of solutions, illustrating the genuine potential of design to cater for different people’s needs and create a better city for all. The conference is part of the official World Design Capital Helsinki 2012 programme. The conference will bring the European Union’s focus area for the year, Active Ageing, to design capital. It will also provide a unique forum where professionals from different fields can share their visions of how design solutions, which pay equal attention to the dignity and needs of different user groups, can improve common wellbeing and welfare. Professionals will also have the chance to consider how such solutions can generate more added value in both the public sector and in businesses.

Experiential Knowledge
Through a series of coCreationcamp(s), we explore the design of knowledge exchange to expand innovation opportunities. Different forms and formats are shaped: join the conversation and let's intersect and expand knowledge scapes. We are working at Helsinki coCreationcamp in May 2012, Paris D-Days June 2012, Copenhagen June 2012, Torino Nov. 2012 and coCreationcamp Creative Wallonia.
Let’s co-create
After Helsinki coCreationcamp on 22-23 May 2012, Madrid on May 28th, Paris on June 1st, and Copenhagen coCreationcamp on June 18-19th 2012, we were in London end June (co-creation & food design) and in Torino on Nov. 9 (about autoproduction, in connection with Operae). The 2012 series is ending with coCreationcamp Creative Wallonia.
