The Urban Studies unit of the University of Basel welcomes you to the fourth edition of the annual City Collaboratory meeting.

The day’s program will reinvigorate the Collaboratory’s mission to make the diversity of Urban Studies scholarship across Swiss institutions visible.

There will be two plenary sessions: “Planetary Repairs: Extractivism, Ecology, and Restitutive Research” by Rita Kesselring and “From platform capitalism to techno-authoritarianism” by Jon Schubert and Nancy Odendaal.

After lunch, there will be two city tours led by members of the Kantons- und Stadtentwicklung Basel-Stadt. The walks will focus on ongoing urban re-generation initiative run by Basel’s planning department.
