EASA
European Architecture Students Assembly (EASA) is a platform for alternative education organized by students, for students. EASA offers a unique framework for co-learning as a non institutionalised way of teaching, learning and exchange. A horizontal learning process where decisions are made upon consensus, EASA gives a chance to experience architecture in a way that universities are yet not providing. EASA brings students to a certain context, defined by the location and theme of the assembly, where they have to raise architectural questions themselves and investigate them. Being their own educators, students then elaborate the answers and bring them to reality.
EASA Rhizome
In 2025 the main event of EASA will be organised in Savonlinna, Finland with the theme ’Rhizome’. Rhizome as a theme is an antithesis. Rhizome is a tool for renewing thinking and changing the way we see the world around us. As we face eco catastrophes and social injustices, it is evident that we have to challenge current power structures and seek for change. Rhizome is a metaphor for something non-hierarchical and heterogeneous, a system that embraces change. It works as an antithesis and a tool to examine the links of architecture, power structures and ecology.
