The International Federation for Housing and Planning (IFHP) invites members of the IFHP and VDM communities to the Toekomst Atelier Oostkop in Rotterdam. This gathering marks IFHP’s official relocation from Copenhagen to Rotterdam, an exciting moment for our organisation and the broader international community of housing and planning.

What to Expect

• We’ll revisit key themes from the Brussels convening. Including the EU task force insights, practical tools, governance models, medium- and long-term scenarios and connect them to the local context.

• Participants will contributre to a timeline of future turning points. Signaling critical junctures in housing policy, design innovation, sustainability, and social inclusion.

• A dynamic exchange among stakeholders, reinforcing how integrated planning and housing strategies can deliver better, fairer, and more resilient urban futures.

Why This Matters

IFHP’s move to Rotterdam reflects our growth and deepening ties with the Euro-Delta region, amplifying our reach and impact across Europe. This workshop builds from the collective insights from Brussels, bringing conversation to the Rotterdam context.
