Urban Age Institute. Social inclusion. How can we open up the circle of decision-makers to include regular citizens? How can governments better respond to citizen’s concerns? How can people and decision-makers cooperate for a better future in the coming decade?

Cities in Focus | New York City (by EMBARQNetwork) About. EngagingCities. Urban Resilience in Bangkok. Bangkok is one of many appropriate locations in the world to talk about urban resilience. It has gone through a series of environmental, economic, and political shocks: the mega-flood two years ago, the financial crises in the late 1990s, a series of coup d’états and political conflicts, to name but a few.
To some extent, the city has bounced back. If our cities are normally able to bounce back as history may suggest, then why do we need to talk about urban resilience and to have a global challenge that addresses this issue? The answer is because it is becoming more difficult to prepare for shocks and to recover from them quickly by just ourselves. Individually, humans are inherently resilient. Increasing urbanization means that more strangers have to live with one another in locations where services and resources are never enough. When building resilience, we cannot ignore the reality of existing economic and social inequities. Filter by Focus Area: Urban Space Critics | one text surrounds another | Page 3. The postwar urban landscape has not become less militarized than the one during the WWII. Spatial segregation in the form of ethnical ghettos, proliferation of control in the form of video surveillance and electronic gates imported from airports to cities are few examples of the modern detachment of the social from the spatial. the overexposed city (an exemplary shot from Singapore) The modern communication revolution which shifted a huge part of social life into an invisible ether of time-space is followed by a revolution of building materials as well as of construction and design techniques resulting in the blurring of former boundaries and gaps between the near and the far, the micro and the macro.
And one should not be illusioned about any possibilities of blurring of accessibility divisions as a consequence of use of more transparent materials. Overexposure portrays a world without antipodes where opacity is but a momentary interlude. The text was based on: For further reading: Towards an inclusive city: Opening the public space for social engagement | DEMOCRACITIES. By Andrea Cubides. There is a deep need to focus on more inclusive ways of shaping cities since more than half of the world´s population now live in them.
All sorts of difficulties are challenging the way we live and survive in the city, moreover for the urban poor who, as only choice, have to agglomerate in inadequate and even dangerous parts of the urban peripheries. Consequently, agglomeration makes difficult the provision of services. Thus, limiting the access to education, sanitation and other networks of opportunities and producing intolerance to differences. Deepening social and economic inequality. A good city should be an inclusive city. One that provide spaces for social engagement and cohesion between its fragmented societies, throughout its entire territory. The city of Medellin, the second largest city of Colombia, is plagued with deep socio-economic differences among its population, just like other cities of the country.

+ Social networking technologies can be harnessed to enable people to participate in local planning activities, without having to make time to attend planning meetings. Engaging with stakeholders and the community is essential for spatial planning on any scale. It’s a process we can improve by using technology to gather and map people’s feedback.
I’ve spent much of my working life talking to people about built environment projects. As an engagement specialist I’m always asking myself - how can we better engage with communities about projects that affect them? How do I make sure that the technical team takes this input into consideration? Over the years I’ve seen that people who participate in stakeholder and community engagement activities generally fit into one of three categories – retirees and people with time on their hands, people who stand to lose something of value to them and people who are passionate about a cause or issue. Five Fantastic Ideas for Public Furniture in Cities. This post is also available in: Chinese (Traditional), Spanish, Italian, Farsi, Portuguese, German In the search for public furniture there is great deal to be considered; cities need to consider the socio-economic history of an area as well as the surrounding community’s hopes for the area’s future.
The ability of great public furniture to inspire innovation and pride can uplift a community and revitalise public spaces. A spirit undeniably embodies in these five fantastic ideas for public furniture. 1. New York City New York City is a metropolis that famously produces iconic symbols of the modern urban lifestyle. 2.

The City in the Crosshairs: A Conversation with Stephen Graham (Pt. 1) [Bryan Finoki] To begin, I am wondering how you conceptualize the Global City and its military role in expanding global capital. I am also interested in the opposite notion, of how cities can be inherently resistant to imperialism rather than acting as mere pistons for the expansion of capitalist development. [Stephen Graham] Global cities, as the key nodes in the transnational architectures of neoliberal capitalism, are vitally important militarily. They organize the financialization and production of space (London, for example, basically controls the financial architectures of large swathes of Africa and the Middle East).
They orchestrate the extending dominance of neoliberalism. They serve as key hubs in the lacing of the world through transnational control, transport and logistics infrastructures. And, they are of course preeminent symbolic spaces for transnational capitalism, making them vulnerable as symbolic targets. [Stephen Graham] I think so. All of this is fairly obvious. This Big City - ideas for sustainable cities. Demain La Ville - Bouygues Immobilier. The Interventionist's Toolkit, Part 1. Essay: Mimi Zeiger Park(ing) Day, San Francisco. [photo courtesy of SPUR] It’s been two and a half years since the financial crisis crippled the global economy. During the long slump that's followed, the architecture, design, and construction sectors have threatened to hit bottom over and over, but a real recovery, which would signal a final flattening out, never seems to materialize.
In the spring of 2009, I interviewed AIA chief economist Kermit Baker for a piece in Architect magazine, on the likely prospects for young architects graduating into a recession. "Baker cites figures from the U.S. The sluggish return we’re now experiencing seems discouragingly consistent with Baker’s models. In which case, here's the question: what’s the operational mode of the bust? Top: Dumpster diving/pools, New York City, made by Macro Sea Mobile Pools.

Esprit de babel. AtNight. El projecte / The project atNight és un projecte de recerca que parteix de la constatació de l'existència del concepte de paisatge nocturn i és, precisament des d'una definició àmplia del terme paisatge, que la investigació vol establir ponts entre els coneixements de diverses disciplines humanístiques i tècniques.
La investigació afronta la descripció del paisatge com a relació sensible i cognitiva entre les persones i el seu entorn i, per consegüent, vol aprofundir en el procés d'identificació de la ciutadania amb el seu territori. El projecte "aNight" explora la relació estètica que s'estableix entre el ciutadà i la pell de la ciutat, entenent el paper de la nit i el de la il•luminació artificial com a elements claus per a una nova articulació del paisatge urbà; un paisatge que considerem essencial reivindicar ja que l'habitem en el nostre temps d'oci i socialització. atNight is a research project based on the (re)definition of the term "nightscape".

My research and consulting activity has been focused on three main fields:• Adaptive urbanism: I have been concerned of how economic crisis is impacting cities, basically in the Spanish context (but using international cases as a reference) and I am advocating for an adaptive urbanism. This is based on the idea that we suffer three main problems we have to face and work on together: economic restrictions (which means the age of big urban interventions is over), climate change (which means we need to adapt built environment) and a social change that is transforming society with new paradigms of learning, governance, companies,..
