All Things Urban

We are happy to announce the second annual Placemaking Week Europe, organised by the European Placemaking Network and STIPO in partnership with La Marina de Valencia, will take place where port and beach meet city, and history meets new development, in beautiful VALENCIA!!! Please join us in Valencia, together with participants from all over Europe and beyond. Placemaking Week Europe is pleased to host diverse attendees, in professional backgrounds, personal interests, and worldly perspectives from all over Europe and even globally. Our guests truly represent the field of placemaking – as this requires varied and collaborative inputs to solidify long lasting and robust success. Together, we are an amalgamation of knowledge banks – from fields related to sociology, urbanism, architecture, science, culture, politics and policy making, entrepreneurs, civic organizations, business and real estate. As a participant, you will collaborate and engage in an action packed 3 days filled with keynote speakers, site-specific workshops, regional site visits, thematic breakout sessions, and toolbox development. We will co-create with locals and La Marina in tactical urbanism workshops prototyping in real life.

We invite placemakers across sectors and disciplines – working for government, real estate developers, business, civic organizations, knowledge institutions, citizens, activists and entrepreneurs – to send in proposals to contribute to Placemaking Week Europe and to be part of the growing European Placemaking Network. Apply before February 25th here: https://thecityateyelevel.com/news/call-for-proposals-placemaking-week-europe-2019/

A group of passionate individuals from diverse backgrounds merging our specialised knowledge banks and skills to help transform space to PLACE achieved through sustainable, resourceful, and co-creative methods. We work to make cities better and more inclusive for all.
