IRS – the best local project for urban reconstruction: the position of the Club of Mayors during the Milan Triennale. Thanks to the support of the company Stefano Boeri Architetti, the IRS team held a presentation of the association of Italian stakeholders around the reconstruction of Irpen – “Urban reconstruction, cases and recommendations: an example of community resilience for the revival of Ukraine” at the Milan Triennale.

Our task was to show the level and number of involvement of Italian specialists in the restoration of Irpen, to raise the ambitions of other countries as well. International and Ukrainian organizations highly appreciated the results of the group’s activities and structured approach to recovery issues.  

Thus, the Club of Mayors of Ukraine recognized IRS as the best local project under the reconstruction program. Fondazione Da Vinci sees the IRS as an example for the implementation of sustainable reconstruction for other cities, and proposed to draw up a compatible methodology to transfer our experience to other communities.

The Milan Triennale is one of the biggest architectural events of the year and is the best platform for presenting ideas about architecture, urban transformations and the future of cities.
