Debata Otevřeně o Praze: Vpřed i bez motorů
The organization Open House Praha is organizing, in collaboration with the center Krenovka of the company Sudop Real, a new series of discussions Openly about Prague, which will focus on topics related to the city’s development. On February 22 at 6:00 PM, a debate on non-motorized transport will take place in Krenovka in the premises of Čítárny Unijazz. The event titled Forward without Motors will focus on current options for moving around Prague on foot and by bike. Attention will also be paid to the obstacles people may encounter when using non-motorized transport.
The new debate format, which will regularly open topics concerning the development of Prague every month, builds on the long-term collaboration between the two main organizations. „We have previously opened the spaces of Krenovka to the public as part of the Open House Praha festival, allowing people to get acquainted with the project of the newly emerging cultural center. We are excited that we can join forces again and invite the people of Prague to a debate, which is one of many diverse programs taking place in the newly reconstructed building,“ says Klára Veselá, director of Open House Praha.
The program, primarily intended for the public in Prague, will consist of three blocks. The introductory part will focus on familiarizing attendees with the issues, followed by a moderated debate with four panelists, and the evening will conclude with a block dedicated to questions from the public. Among the panelists will be Jarmila Johnová, co-founder of Pěšky městem, Zuzana Poláková from the association AUTOmat – Laboratory for Sustainable Urbanism, Matěj Michalk Žaloudek, an architect and member of the council of Prague 3 for the Green Party, and Rozálie Kašparová, an urbanist from the Office of Public Space IPR Praha.
Since the beginning of the last century, when people were still used to walking around the city, Prague has changed significantly. „Analysis of the transport behavior of Praguers shows that approximately half of the trips in the capital are made by public transport, a quarter by car, and a quarter on foot,“ says Michal Šedivý, the debate moderator and lecturer at year-round events of Open House Praha. And as Jarmila Johnová points out: „Walking is very important also for people to feel at home in their city.“
Tickets for the debate Openly about Prague: Forward without Motors can be purchased via GoOut.net.
