Lecture 13: Strategies for the comprehensive transformation of soviet housing construction

In this lecture, we will look at the problem of comprehensive renovation of Soviet-era mass housing construction on the example of Lithuania, where the processes are too slow, and the results often do not bring significant qualitative changes, and young families continue to move to the suburbs. Isn't it paradoxical that once a five-story apartment building could be built in a couple of weeks, and now, even with the use of all the latest technologies, it takes about a year to renovate?

We invite all interested parties to attend the Introductory module and ask your questions to the representatives of the European Commission and future teachers.
