The National Centre RUSSIA and the portal Municipalities.RF have launched a podcast about the future of cities
The National Centre RUSSIA, in collaboration with the Municipalities.RF portal, has introduced a new podcast dedicated to the future of cities. Experts in urban studies and representatives from the creative industries discuss key elements that will shape the development and appearance of cities. The dialogue was initiated at the International Symposium "Inventing the Future."
The first guest on the podcast was Alexander Panin, Head of the "Kartfond" Information Centre and Director of the Centre for Geodemography and Spatial Development at Moscow State University. During the Symposium, he also moderated a discussion on cities of the future. The podcast is available on the Telegram channel of the National Centre RUSSIA.
It is worth noting that the International Symposium "Inventing the Future" hosted a discussion focused on case studies titled "Cities of the Future: Creating Space for Life." The event brought together Russian and international specialists in urban planning. Its primary goal was to discuss what it will take to build a truly successful city in the coming decades and what measures need to be taken to make such a city a reality.
The National Centre RUSSIA was established by order of the President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, to preserve the legacy of the International RUSSIA EXPO and to showcase the achievements of the country and its citizens on a permanent basis. Federal government bodies, state companies, corporations, and regions take part in the Centre’s work.
The first event at the National Centre RUSSIA was the International Symposium "Inventing the Future," which welcomed more than 6,000 guests from 101 countries.
One of the tracks of the Open Dialogue is "Investments in Human Capital." The pitch session on this topic brought together over 30 speakers.
One of the key topics for discussion within the initiative became "Investments in Connectivity," which attracted 24% of the essay authors about the future of the world.
The pitch sessions on four tracks took place at the National Centre RUSSIA on April 28, with the participation of authors whose essays were selected by the expert council of the National Centre.
