Urban Futures
Inter- and transdisciplinary teaching and research as a key for solving complex problems
Lecture by Michael Prytula
Online lecture as a part of the Year of Climate Care programme for “educators”.
Prof. Prytula is an architect and has been a research professor for resource-efficient and climate-adapted building at the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam in the Department of CITY I BUILDING I CULTURE and the Institute for Urban Future since 2014. His teaching and research focuses on new forms of housing as well as the energetic-material and spatial planning issues in the context of a socio-ecological transformation of urban systems. The aim is to understand and sustainably design urban metabolism. The research includes questions on energy-efficient building and renewable energies, climate-adapted building, and energetic urban redevelopment. This requires a holistic view of construction, building technology, and infrastructure systems. Prof. Prytula has been head of the Urban Futures Master’s programme since 2016 and head of the Institute for Applied Research (at the FHP) since 2021, as well as a member of the Climate Council of the state capital Potsdam.

Year of Climate Care is a project and initiative inspired by global environmental movements and the debate on climate change and its impact on communities. The conceptual background is provided by the themes of the New European Bauhaus initiative.
The project takes place under the auspices of the President of the Slovak Republic, Zuzana Čaputová.
The intention is to support and develop the activities of the creative and educational sector to prevent the negative impacts of climate change in social, cultural and everyday life and to support the transition of society to a carbon-free future, educating about climate change and how to cope with it.
The expected long-term outcome is that the project organisers and partners will create a distributed interdisciplinary platform for knowledge exchange and collaboration between the creative, educational and other sectors.
