Never Never School

Never Never School is a unique space for dialogical learning and research about cities. It is a prototype and a concept for education in the 21st century. Since 2018, the Spolka collective has been developing this unique platform for individuals and collectives engaged in city-making across artistic and social science disciplines. It is built on intensive collaboration and mutual learning.

Never Never School uses design as a tool for investigation and imagination, and as a medium for dialogue about possible futures. At the same time, it functions as an incubator: participants have the opportunity to transform their ideas into projects rooted in reality, which they collectively test and develop. It promotes a values-driven and democratically oriented approach to learning and to city-making itself. It transcends the traditional boundaries of education based on hierarchies such as teacher–student or expert–layperson.
