This panel presents the innovative approach of "Green Soundproofing". It's not just about resolving noise conflicts between nightlife venues and residents, but about creating a solution that provides shade and cooling during the day while acting as an acoustic buffer and a habitat for nocturnal insects at night. Experts from architecture, acoustics, and urban governance will discuss the architectural, technological, and social dimensions of this concept. They will demonstrate how such "triple-win" solutions have the potential to move beyond a conflict-driven discourse and initiate a holistic shift in urban development.
