[resource-net] Invite: Urban Knights, 5th Nov, BetaHaus

[Teresa Dillon]

Urban Knights is a programme of events, which provokes and promotes
practical approaches to urban change. Established in Dublin, this Autumn
the programme travels to Berlin.

Urban Knights brings together people who are actively creating
alternatives, which reflect or produce disruptions to our given city
infrastructures, norms and perceptions.

Acting as a platform for awareness, exchange and dissemination, urban
knights, change agents and citizens present their civic interventions,
projects and programmes. 

FORMAT:

At each event speakers present and discuss their work for 10-mins,
followed by questions and conversations with the audience.
