Six collaborative workshops

The Adaptive City is a series of six collaborative workshops sponsored by the ACT Government and delivered by the Canberra Innovation Network with different partners. The main theme of all the workshops is innovation driven collaboration of key city stakeholders to position recovery and growth as we emerge from the pandemic as a city, economy and society. We explore and get inspired by stories of resilience, flexibility and growth and learn from situations where the crises (bushfires, hail, COVID-19 and associated restrictions and impacts) created unprecedented challenges as well as opportunities for new practice.

We share intelligence, experiences, views and we work together to create a shared vision for new realities across sectors of our economy and society, inspiring collective collaborative activities that leverage our strengths, innovation and ingenuity to position our city for a better and re-imagined future.

The workshops include keynotes, panels, short stories, open-ended questions inspiring facilitated work in small groups, sharing and reflections.
