Coneix el projecte de transformació dels espais
Projecte Àrea TallersVenues
The Tallers area venues were designed and conceived to respond to the EDvolution educational model, the aim of which is to spark the students’ imagination and creativity with flexible learning environments and the services and resources which comprise and reinforce this new educational model at the UPF.
A space with spaces that help manage learning and cultural production, where educational dynamics go beyond formal learning and which include communal areas for promoting collaborative and intersectional work that combines teaching, research and knowledge transfer, between society, businesses and the University, in efforts to become a meeting point not only for the campus, but also the district and society at large.
These venues may also be used by Catalonia’s cultural industry collectives, with whom we are firmly committed to exchanging knowledge and experiences.
On the venue rental website, in addition to information about renting the Tallers area venues, visitors may also access information on the rest of the venues on the Poblenou Campus (auditorium, classrooms, conference and activity rooms, etc.) and at the UPF.
