Program Description

During phase two of An Urgent Situation, a series of online gatherings will focus on a specific task: the conceptual and physical development of Samong Haven Bali, a culture centre presently in development in rural North-West Bali, Indonesia. This initiative offers participants a unique opportunity to propose and develop ideas that connect visitors and the visited, encourage cultural exchange and development, minimise environmental impact and contribute to conservation. Combining insights from phase one with new concepts and inspirations, the group will (a) script a manifesto for responsible and resilient development, and (b) create design proposals for Samong Haven Bali – plans for sustainable, low-impact constructions that reflect the manifesto’s ideals and are practically realisable.
