LWCIRCUS.ORG - In 2016 LWCircus.org was founded - a non-profit multi-national organization based in Florence, Rome and Mexico City. The Organization has embraced a worldwide network of practitioners, researchers and artists supporting the LWCircus Program. The new workshop LWC, born as complementary iteration of LandWorks-Sardinia*, is operative, experiential and performance-based andtransnational, between the Mediterranean, Mexico and other MENA Countries, and created in collaboration with esteemed International Universities and other Cultural Institutions. The Program is focused on experimental methods and strategies of design and based largely on social and cultural practices in the field. LWC aims to enhance sensitive areas and redesign contemporary rural and urban landscapes under environmental, social and economic transition. LWC looks for alternative tools and devices to activate sustainable development and responsible action through operative shared workshops, through the direct involvement of local communities, minorities and well known international practitioners. The workshops stimulate the interdisciplinary exchange of knowledge, information, attitudes, skills and real-world know-how through artistic expression and multiple forms of media. LWC outcomes have resulted in integration, cultural and economic development for local inhabitants and minorities involved. *LandWorks-Sardinia (2011- 2016) - is a design workshop experience that has engaged internationally renowned practitioners from different disciplines (landscape architecture, dance and music, anthropology, art and architecture and other performing disciplines) in collaboration with international students and actors from the local community. The workshops have been going for a first cycle of six years editions - shared, operative, spontaneous works with a multidisciplinary and multicultural approach.
