Summary

Citizen participation is not only a necessity but can enrich projects enormously in terms of the knowledge of the many. Nevertheless, the dynamics of technological, political and societal changes have heated up the climate for participation in many places. New forms of protest and new forces of city-making require new ways of participation. In this seminar you will learn about new strategies and instruments how to shape the city together.
