Pratt Institute has been subcontracted by Aalto University to support their efforts on a project titled UTOPIZE project, Urban Transformation Through Open Participation and Inclusivity for Citizen Empowerment, funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-MISS-2024-NEB-01-02). The originating grant, led by the Comunidade Intermunicipal de Coimbra, UTOPIZE is a €3.9 million, 36-month project piloting UTOPIA Labs to co-design and co-govern public spaces in communities across Portugal, Italy, and Sweden. Pratt’s project lead, David Erdman, associate professor of Graduate Architecture, Landscape Architecture, and Urban Design (GA/LA/UD), has been subcontracted to co-develop workshops that use artificial intelligence and machine learning to examine climate threats and strategies for adaptation.
