El mes de març s'inicia el cicle "Absolutament moder(rr)ns" al COAC
El cicle pretén donar veu a les noves pràctiques de l'arquitectura contemporània local en una sèrie de conferències i accions que parteixen d'unes preguntes bàsiques, que al seu torn apel·len a aquella necessitat que el 1873 va plantejar Arthur Rimbaud: "Cal ser absolutament moderns".
En què consisteix ser avui contemporani? Passa la contemporaneïtat necessàriament per certs grups i connexions imprescindibles (allò que en el seu moment es va anomenar avantguarda), o hi ha altres camins possibles per no perdre el pols amb el present? Quins són, si és que n'hi ha, aquests nous paradigmes de la contemporaneïtat? Es convidarà a tots els participants del cicle a respondre a aquesta sèrie de qüestions, bé sigui en format conferència o bé en les "Accions a l'Altell", una sèrie d'accions conjuntes entre un artista i un estudi d'arquitectura.
El cicle s'estructura en una sèrie de conferències que, un cop al mes, de març a juny, seran seguides de la inauguració de les "Accions a l'Altell".
"Absolutament moder(rr)ns" arrenca amb una sessió conjunta de conferències d'Arquitectura-G, Studio Animal i Guillermo Santomà, que seran seguides de la inauguració de l'acció de l'artista Carlos Valverde i l'estudi Flexo arquitectura.

Long-term programme for recognition of a professional Master Degree
The Sert School offers an annual training plan focused on recognizing the skills of its students by means of specific training in order to obtain a professional Master Degree.
With this objective, specialized course content is formulated in those areas that are becoming consolidated as a driver of economic activity and which offer higher employment opportunities:
· Master in Building Renovation with a specialization in Structures
· Master in Sustainable Building Renovation
· Master in Sustainability with a specialization in Energy Management
· Master in Facility Management with a specialization in Energy Management
The professional master degrees from the Architects’ Association of Catalonia are training courses that recognize vocational skills in areas that are currently becoming established as drivers of economic activity, such as energy rehabilitation and environmental management.
The training courses at the Sert School are practical by nature, based on learning by doing and including real interventions in buildings and work placements in companies and institutions.

Cooperative Architecture Seminar at the COAC
The COAC is organizing a seminar on the active role played by architects in Processes of Citizen Participation, which will be held on 26, 27 and 28 February at the COAC headquarters.
The Seminar on Cooperative Architecture, curated by Eva Serrats and Francesc Pla, are aimed at architects and other citizens who take part of specific participative processes or who, in their professional role within public administration, need to integrate participative processes into their work serving the community.
In view of the growing interest of many people to form part of the process of transforming the city, the aim of these public participation processes is to include the stakeholders involved (and/or affected) by this transformation in the process of urban and architectural design. Participative design consists of finding inclusive channels for integrating the different stakeholders, transforming the project into an open and collaborative creative process that devolves decision-making powers to local stakeholders.
Consequently, the objectives of the Seminar are as follows:
· To provide training for the architects’ collective in the tools and methodologies of citizen participation.
· To define the optimum conditions for developing processes of citizen participation.
· To promote the useful role of the architect in the projects and processes of citizen participation.
· To share knowledge and coordinate initiatives.
