All Things Urban

reSITE is an international collaborative and non-profit platform based in Prague to exchange ideas about making cities more livable, competitive and resilient. We organize major international festivals and conferences in addition to dozens of events throughout the year such as workshops, film premiers, discussions, urban games, bike rides and architectural competitions and interventions.

Are you passionate about fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, unlocking potential, and effecting meaningful change in the way we think about architecture & cities? Are you keen on working with reSITE's international team? Are you ready to give the best of yourself for a good cause through outstanding initiatives and events?

We are a non-profit platform supporting the intersections and synergies of architecture, urbanism, politics, culture and economics working in Prague, Lisbon, Berlin & North America. For the past seven years, reSITE became a leading voice in Europe in the field of rethinking urban planning, architecture and urban development, attracting political leaders of inspirational cities to its Prague’s flagship event. reSITE connects leaders across disciplines and brings a multitude of events, debates, film screenings, exhibitions and bike rides for the general public. Recently, reSITE opened Manifesto Market, a popup space on an unused plot of land in the center of Prague. reSITE was founded in 2011 by Martin Barry, a landscape architect, originally from New York, and reSITE’s guest curator is Greg Lindsay.
