<div class="">During this summer school, the students will be immersed in critical urban theory and practical approaches to urban ethnography, drawing from a broad range of excellent research at three faculties of the University of Copenhagen. The aim of the

<b class="">Urban Culture in Theory and Action (7.5 ECTS), 6th of August to 17th of August 2018</b><br class="">
During this summer school in the heart of Copenhagen, students from across the world get an opportunity to move from analyzing problems in urban societies to creating possible solutions and identifying real potentials. Students can thus try their hand at implementing
ideas for change in the practice and production of culture in relation to the built environment.<br class="">
<br class="">
The summer school is organized together with Strøm music festival and it combines academic theory with hands-on practice, using a specific area of Copenhagen as a laboratory for developing creative and innovative solutions to actual problems or for identifying
potentials hidden in urban space. <br class="">
