From September 26 to 28 in Turin, as part of the Chora & Will Days, the new edition of Future4Cities, the Festival of Changing Cities, will take place. Created by Will Media and FROM, the festival includes talks, workshops, and presentations on the challenges of the city of the future, with the participation of Livia Shamir, Director of the Research Department at Stefano Boeri Architetti.
Since 2023, Future4Cities has been connecting the people and organizations transforming Italian cities with citizens eager to explore the future of the places we live in. This year too, Future4Cities will feature talks, workshops, live podcasts, lectures, and urban activations to showcase voices and projects tackling the great challenges of this century of cities. Turin offers a fertile context for these discussions: ecological transition and natural ecosystems, proximity and social fabric, economic development, housing access, public spaces and civic participation, mobility, and regeneration.
On Friday, September 26 at 5:15 PM, the event The Challenges of Cities – and Who Is Facing Them. Future4Cities Award 2025 will take place. The jury includes Livia Shamir, who will speak during the introduction, along with Camilla Ferrario (Chora & Will), Matteo Brambilla (FROM), and Flavio Proietti Pantosti (Co-founder, Officine Italia & Reoassunto, Obama Scholar). The event will present the finalist projects of the F4C 2025 Award in the categories “Climate Action” and “Grassroots Projects”, followed by the announcement of the winning projects.
