Debat

Pay what you can

Stad Gent presenteert: Finale sessie Stadsdebat Caermersklooster

Together with stakeholders, local residents and interested citizens of Ghent, the city of Ghent set out to find a socially relevant use for the Caermersklooster (not the part where Kunsthal Gent is housed, but the remaining parts of the building, which were used for social housing, by the Dekenij Patershol, or have partly been empty for decades).

In addition to formally handing over the final report to the owners, that evening we will look back on the past trajectory of the City Debate and briefly explain the final report, delivered by bureau Miss Miyagi. All this in the presence of both owners, WoninGent represented by chairman Marc Heughebaert and the Province of East Flanders by commissioner Leentje Grillaert. We conclude with a round of questions.
