Academic Year 2024/2025
This module provides an introduction to, and overview of, the design of more people-focused liveable cities. "Play" will be considered as a catalyst for design that can lead to a more equitable inter-generational city. Throughout there will be a focus on grassroots collaboration, which will develop the students' understanding of the growing importance of giving communities a voice in the decision-making process and how both formal and informal processes can shape the public realm. There will be a strong emphasis on strengthening the students' capacity and confidence in understanding the importance of, and skill in, co-creative processes, collaboration and consultation. Consideration will be given to the role of all players in the creative and implementation processes: funders, local authorities, not-for-profit groups, professionals, facilitators and participants, and the use of social media as a tool for getting things done.
