In the Rebuilding Pavilion, curated by The Royal Danish Academy and funded by Realdania, the aim has been to physically test sustainable rebuilding.
Rebuilding after a devastating war, a huge flooding or with the intention of changing a slum into a proper city. The reasons of rebuilding are many, strategies differ and local settings are crucial to understand, in order to make a real difference.

You will also hear the Syrian writer and architect Marwa Al-Sabouni on rebuilding-strategies after war and Indian architect Bhawna Jaimini reflects on how to change a slum from within. Ingeborg Hau reflects on rebuilding seen in a Danish perspective.
