# Event Details - **Event Name**: Democratic Design – #4 Democratic Education - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 28 Jan, 2026 at 06:30 pm – Wed, 28 Jan, 2026 at 08:30 pm - **Event Description**: The fourth Lab Talk examines new approaches to teaching the next generation democratic values and participation through planning and designAbout this EventThe growing complexity of societal challenges calls for innovative, holistic and inclusive approaches. Architects can play a central role in this, as architecture and urban planning have always relied on cooperation and compromise. Emerging forms of collaboration and the rise of young, transdisciplinary collectives signal a shift towards a cooperative culture that prioritises the common good and challenges established hierarchies.To secure democracy for the future, it will be especially important to make the young generation feel part of decision-making processes and their built environment, thereby evoking a feeling of responsibility and participation. This change needs to be addressed in institutions, universities and educational programmes.The fourth and final Lab Talk in the Aedes programme Democratic Design brings design and education together, discussing new ways of integrating democratic values in architectural education and asks: How can we teach democratic values and participation through planning and design to a new generation? What spaces are needed for this? How can we value the young generation and their culture on a social level in public space instead of focusing one-dimensionally on the economic viability of places?

The programme consists of an exhibition, a series of four Lab Talks and a catalogue featuring contributions from practitioners in Berlin, Germany and across Europe, selected through an open call in collaboration with European architecture centres.At the core of Democratic Design are democratic planning processes and the spaces they create. The presented projects amplify marginalised voices, encourage participation and inspire collective visions for the future. Dialogue and exchange are essential conditions for democracy, cultivating the ability to accept differing viewpoints and to compromise – the very foundations of democratic culture.
