Pathways to Transformation will take place in Le Plaza Brussels, a hotel built between 1928 and 1931 in the heart of the European capital. The large theatre with its neo-baroque décor will serve as the main conference venue. Its colourful past has earned Le Plaza a place on the Belgian heritage list in 1992 and its Art Deco charm fits Pathways to Transformation. The Art Deco architecture was a mixture of modern and international styles, brought together by the movement´s faith in social and technological development. This faith is an integral part in social responsibility and reflects what Pathways to Transformation is set out to explore: Which pathways may institutions follow towards being more socially responsive?
