2022: Conference: Danske Velfærdsrum

The conference 'Danske Velfærdsrum' focuses on changes in the Danish welfare systems. It is based on an interdisciplinary research project, Spaces of Danish Welfare, which brings together perspectives from anthropology, art history and architecture / urbanism to investigate the role that spatial change plays in people's everyday lives and what implications this has for architecture and planning.

'Spaces of Danish Welfare' (2017-2022) has explored the spatial aspects of Danish welfare systems. The project examines the changes a number of welfare systems are undergoing in recent years, through concrete and locally based studies of collective homes, superhospitals, school inclusion, public space safety, dementia care homes, crematoria, architectural photographs of welfare sites and buildings and the new peripheries of welfare.

The conference is aimed at people who work with or are interested in welfare and its spaces and places through their work in design studios, in NGOs, through the media, under municipal, regional or state auspices, or by virtue of an interest in the changes and contexts, welfare and its places are subject. The aim of the conference is to present research from the research project Spaces of Danish Welfare and thereby put the space of welfare up for debate.
