introduction
This booklet offers an overview of what EASA 2017 in Fredericia will be all about and how you can be part of it. Our vision for the event is to engage the EASA community in an architectural discussion of the theme: Hospitality - Finding the Framework. The theme will be explored through workshops and lectures. We envision EASA 2017 to be a catalyst of a change, a testbed for architectural innovations and discoveries, which can start the process of implementing problem-driven solutions in the urban environment of Fredericia. This will be achieved by the international architecture students, who will take part in the event and contribute to the workshops in cooperation with local community. EASA 2017 intends to address different groups of Fredericia’s citizens, current and future, as well the visitors from other parts of Denmark and abroad.

EASA [European Architecture Students Assembly] is the biggest architecture students’ network reaching all over Europe. It is a platform for architecture students to share thoughts, ideas and methods across borders and cultures. Our common language is architecture in all its shapes and sizes. Every summer EASA gathers around 500 students of architecture from more than 40 countries and 200 different schools of architecture. For over two weeks the architecture students, graduates and tutors live, learn and create together, - being involved in various practical and theoretical workshops held by skilled tutors, accompanied by lectures by locally and internationally acclaimed architects. What makes EASA unique is the fact that is run by students for students. This allows for ideas and thoughts to take shape in a free and open environment, where experimentation and innovations are the key drivers of the event. EASA has existed since 1981 and is a well-known and respected event within the European architectural community.

The are different people who make EASA happen: organisers, national contacts, participants, tutors and helpers. It is important to note that though people attending EASA have different roles, it is one community where everybody is working together, having fun together and helping each other regardless of the role.
easa community
The organising process is run by volunteers, who make the core of the assembly by combining the location and theme and organizing the practical issues. The EASA Denmark 2017 organising team is made up by a vast mix of Scandinavian and International EASians all joining forces to bring EASA to Denmark for the fourth time. A team created in the EASA spirit, with a combination of experienced EASA veterans and new energetic aspiring faces. During the event, the organising team will be strengthened by volunteer helpers. Helpers are usually old EASians, helping at the info desk, lending tools and working in the bar. National Contacts (NC’s) are the life blood of the EASA network, it is only through the NC’s that EASA exists and they are the reason why the network is now in its 35th year. The backbone of the assembly are the tutors, who run various workshops selected among all the received proposals. They coordinate and lead participants in their work and oversee the results. Last but not least are the participants, the biggest group of people at EASA, which represent almost 50 countries around Europe and abroad.

theme hospitality
16
The theme “Hospitality. Finding the framework� resonates with the history of Fredericia and the challenges the city now faces, as well as it relates to the current political situation in Europe and the world. The theme is divided into two practical sub-themes, linked to research on hospitality and to endeavors of finding a framework for it. These follow the classical division of EASA workshops into theoretical, practical and workshops, which combine the two parts of the theme. We are addressing a particularly important and urgent contemporary issue - the crisis of hospitality. In this world of obliged and desired mobility, the way we welcome each other is essential. We believe our cities need to be open and friendly for social diversity, as we are when we welcome guests to our homes. Nowadays, the concept of hospitality is being commercialized and the initial idea is being misinterpreted. It implies that some categories of people (immigrants, newcomers, refugees, people with special demands or differences) face challenges and difficulties in their everyday life. Ones are not able or not allowed to come to certain areas or even countries, others need to pay for help or be outcasted.
To respond this, we need to find, understand and implement new hospitality in the current social framework. We believe, that only through an ongoing process of formal and informal interactions within and between individual communities and different cultures, new humanity will emerge. Architects are believed to be in charge of the form of the built environment, not its content. Nevertheless, architectural framework affects content. Through architecture we can sense how new forms can make a difference for the progress of world civilization. We, young architects, should learn how to construct the new physical environment for hospitality, and provide solutions for social mistrust, fragmentation and atomization.

location
fredericia 2017 EASA will be held in Fredericia, Denmark.
Fredericia is located in the southeastern part of the Jutland peninsula in a sub-region known locally as Trekanten, or The Triangle. Fredericia is located near the country’s main motorway intersection, which connects both the east-west and the north-south directions. The distinctive feature of Fredericia’s city center is a clearly defined physical boundary – the historic ramparts. The ramparts have confined the center to a small area of 1 x 1 km (100 ha), which is divided into a well-preserved original grid structure. In a Northern Europe context, it is unique. Fredericia has its particular history, culture and identity, which takes as its starting point some historical elements: diversity, which can be traced to the city’s founding in 1650, where people with different backgrounds were invited to settle in the city; military history, which is based on different battles, which took place here; intensive industrialization in the 19th century. Fredericia has in fact been hosted industrial companies longer than many other Danish cities.

participating as a participant
As a participant in EASA you are in the core of the event! At the beginning of the two weeks you choose the workshop you want to be part of for the whole duration of EASA, you get to attend lectures, meet new friends and discover Fredericia. There are various kinds of workshops ranging from construction and design to theoretical and community focused ones so remember to keep an open mind on what you want to dive into. The participant call is organized by each country’s national contacts (NC’s). Every country has their own way of selecting the participants and the deadline for applications may wary depending on the country as well. Be sure to contact your country’s NC’s so you don’t miss out. The list of national contacts’ contact details are at the end of this booklet. If you come from outside of Europe, please notice that there are contact details also for CLEA for people from South America, NASA for Indian participants and International for everyone else. The nature of EASA is to include and spread the joy far and wide! If you cannot find an appropriate contact person, please contact us directly.

As a helper you are the glue that keeps the whole event together and running! Helper duties include working at the info point, the kitchen, the bar and the tool box or arranging tables and seats for a lecture for example. You don’t need to have previous experience of working in these environments but it might be useful that you have attended an EASA before to have an idea of how the event usually functions. You will have some days off during the event and we will do our best to arrange the shifts so that you have time to explore what is happening around you as well. But, as a helper you are there to help and we expect you to take responsibility for your role. Before applying, please take note that the helpers should arrive on Tuesday the 18th of July or alternatively stay 3 days longer after the event - to set up and to clean up. You have the chance to specify in the application which of these works better for your summer plans. The application deadline for helpers is 19.04.2017. The application form can be found at: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeX1aVHWDLVFbO0VEOHmhglz1tCMdcyQS4xog7mfvWgwj6Nqw/viewform
