NMM workshop in Berlin


 *  Berlin workshop, March 2011  :
 * In Berlin, about 50 INURA members discussed the proposals of the Athens INURA group (in close corporation with Marvi) to advance our set of categories for mapping the "New Metropolitan Mainstream" by using a new structure of five layers (see document: INURA COMMON PROJECT: A CONTRIBUTION TO THE BERLIN WORKSHOP BY THE ATHENS TEAM ). We agreed on this new structure as a way to respond to the consequences of the worldwide economic crisis on cities and "to bring the project closer to INURA principles and the declaration, and make it easer to understand the maps, the categories and the whole NMM project" (see document: KIT for the workshop in Athens PREPARATION KIT for the workshop in Athens, February 16-19, 2012) . In Berlin, we also agreed to produce a book documenting the maps, plus city portraits and comparative texts.

 The Berlin meeting was also where the issue of the crisis emerged, brought by the greek broup proposing the crisis layer.
