Planning for people means a new approach to urban regeneration, setting aside the traditional focus of the ‘place’ in favour of the ‘people’. Increasingly, every city faces challenges of inequality, immigration and security, so public spaces that can be enjoyed by the whole community offer an ideal opportunity to address these issues. By taking this a step further and involving the community in the entire redevelopment process, projects can better meet the needs of the people and more effectively tackle these challenges.
Description
By harnessing the skills, creativity, energy and ideas of the citizens, city authorities can redevelop areas with a view to promoting social cohesion.
The popular speednetworking sessions are again a central feature of the conference. Around 25 tables will be set up, each led by a city delegation who will present a project inspired by the broad theme ‘planning for people’. Cities are invited to submit proposals for speednetworking sessions by completing the speednetworking registration form. Deadline for proposals is 9 September 2011.
The topic of the Mayor’s debat is migration. The participants in the mayors’ debate will be invited to take part in table discussions on a number of aspects of migration management and migrant integration.
