Conversas Berlin is a series of weekly informal meetings so that we can get to know and discuss a variation of projects and interests.

During the Conversas two/three Conversadores (those who talk at Conversas) bring something to share with the gathered group, for thirty minutes each. As the title suggests itself, Conversas (Conversations in Portuguese) aim at an equal set up from which both the Conversadores and the group, should be able to profit.

Conversas exists of a series of 10 and runs every Wednesday until November 30.

Initiated in Lisbon 2012 by Constança Saraiva and Mafalda Fernandes, Conversas is nowadays a project of many people and cities. Conversas Berlin takes places at a shared studio space, and is co-organized by Sabrina Basten and Sarie Nijboer.
