DESCRIPTION

On 2 and 3 October 2013, the GTP hosted a series of seminars and scenario planning workshops to capture ideas. In attendance at the "Imagine the Future" Seminar was a cross-sector mix of people including councillors, City and Provincial government officials, planners and urban designers, researchers, NGOS, built environment professionals, and members of the media. This presentation by the the managing director of Future Cape Town, a public benefit think tank, the nature of placemaking, community building and city structure is discussed in a visual style. It considers international case studies in the art of placemaking that recognises the central participation and co-creation of communities. It also unpacks the large driving forces in the world, and how that plays into the process of placemaking.
