Annual event of presentation and discussion of the collective projects of the year. Students, partners, teachers, researchers or professionals from cities and regions come to discuss major contemporary urban and territorial issues.

Every year, the Urban School's students are invited by public or private partners to collaborate on real-life challenges, in order to address operational and strategic questions. They do this through a "Group Project" exercise. The students will present their projects during workshops, with the presence of tutors and partners, and will receive feedback from a major witness as well as engage in debates.
