Designed Living Environments for Breakfast – Hanna Smekal

DESIGNED LIVING ENVIRONMENT AND REGIONAL PROCESS MANAGEMENT

Hanna Smekal is a strategist at the community planning department at Region Halland. She previously held the position of process manager for designed living environment, which was a time-limited project, co-financed by the administrations for Culture and Education and Regional Development.

The assignment, which has now become part of her permanent position, includes mapping the work with designed living environment in Halland, developing networks and collaborations, raising the level of knowledge in the area and integrating designed living environment in the regional physical plan. Hanna Smekal has established a network with around 35 municipal officials from various areas in all of Halland’s municipalities. She will now share her experiences, almost two years after starting.

In the conversation series Designed Living Environments for Breakfast we meet architects, artists, cilvil servants, politicians and researchers to get a unique insight into new strategies and working methods on how different aspects of designed living environment can impact and contribute to improve conditions in our society. The webinars are held once a month during spring and fall and take place on Thursdays between 08.30-09.30. You connect through the digital plattform Teams with a link posted in calendar events in connection with the events, no pre-registration is requested.

The conversation series is organized in a collaboration between Region Uppsala, Region Halland, Region Blekinge, Region Jämtland Härjedalen and Region Västmanland.
