Global Public Space Toolkit: From Global Principles to Local Policies and Practice
The structure chosen for this work rests on three elements: why, what and how: the case for public space; goals, constraints, principles and policies; and turning good principles into actions. The toolkit has been designed to be available to all and easily accessible. The text is illustrated by brief quotes and practical examples of cases on past or ongoing public space initiatives. A web-based version, which is intended to grow and be enriched with contributions from local and global actors, can be found at: www.urbangateway.org/public space Widely applicable including informal settlements in LMICs. Useful for city authorities with interest for practitioners and community activists.
