Care Is Infrastructure: How Cities Can Design Care-Ready Workplaces for an Ageing Europe
Beautiful. Sustainable. Together. But what about CARE?
The New European Bauhaus asks us to imagine a more beautiful, sustainable, and inclusive future for our cities. But a city cannot be truly inclusive if it ignores the invisible infrastructure that holds it together: CARE.
As Europe’s population ages, treating care as a private, hidden burden is a design failure. Care is not a soft luxury—it is essential social infrastructure.
This is not a webinar. It is a 60-minute design intervention.
Most festivals go big. We go circular. Porto Dome is stripping away the usual corporate webinar fluff to host a high-density, high-impact forum. We are bringing together city representatives, progressive designers, researchers, and care practitioners who reject status-quo urban planning.
We aren't here to lecture you with slides. We are here to co-create a blueprint for workplaces and everyday environments that actively support caregivers and foster intergenerational belonging.
⏱️ THE 60-MINUTE MANIFESTO
12:00 - 12:10 | THE TENSION: Why care is our most overlooked urban infrastructure asset.
12:10 - 12:40 | THE BLUEPRINT: Direct, actionable insights on care-ready workplaces and urban design.
12:40 - 13:00 | THE DIALOGUE: An open, collaborative session to challenge current models and connect the tribe.
👥 WHO BELONGS IN THIS ROOM?
"People like us do things like this."
This room is a gathering for people who believe urban design must serve human vulnerability. If you are a city planner, progressive architect, researcher, or care advocate looking to turn the invisible realities of aging into systemic change, your tribe is waiting.
We start sharp at 12:00 CET. We end exactly at 13:00.
