LOCAL DEBATE
November 2024
In November 2024, KIKK organised its first local debate to map the local natural heritage and favored creative exchange among various participants and artists. Artists Robertina Šebjanič and Marco Barotti, geographer Dimitri Belayew, and ESA Saint Luc’s students - urban space and heritage - met during a workshop on a landscape analysis of Namur and its connections with the Sambre and Meuse rivers. With le Delta Namur, Sambre 2030 & Institut ILEE.
COMING NEXT
March 2024
The second local debate will be set during Le Printemps des Sciences in March!
We will explore the themes of water and biodiversity—raising awareness about climate challenges and sharing personal stories in a collective experience. Come meet artists, citizens, and researchers to engage in an artistic and thought-provoking reflection on the future of our territories.
