How can Sofia’s panel and newly built residential neighborhoods become more connected, functional, and vibrant? How do people and culture transform the urban environment?
On March 22, 2025, at UACEG’s canteen, we are bringing together architects, urban planners, designers, and active citizens for inspiring discussions and international case studies.
Key Topics: the potential and urban planning characteristics of both types of neighborhoods; people as the driving force behind urban change; culture as a tool for unlocking forgotten urban spaces.
Spots are limited! Join us here.

Three international experts will be taking part in the forum – Jeroen Koolhaas, Dr. Donagh Horgan, and Maik Ronz. They will share successful examples of placemaking transformations and best practices for revitalizing urban spaces.
We also look forward to panel discussions with established professionals from various fields, along with many inspiring conversations about the future of our cities.
