Colloque : EDRA43Seatle, “Emergent Placemaking”, may30-june2 2012

Conference Theme: Emergent Placemaking

Diverse, challenging, complex, agile, and interconnected; five words that describe our world today. As we navigate its constancy and change, the world we live in compels us to act in authentic ways, ask difficult questions, and take risks. This is a magical time for placemaking. Successful placemaking demands innovative thinking to respond to shifting contexts and life in a world of increasing complexity, hybridity, and uncertainty. It requires investment and stewardship of both the people and the land that comprise our communities. It advocates for formal and informal efforts to initiate positive community change and achieve spatial justice. This year’s theme, “Emergent Placemaking”, speaks to both potentiality and continuity. It captures the value of innovation and creativity in tackling the pressing issues of our time. It advocates for the formation of new, dynamic approaches to understanding and fostering healthy communities. It accepts controversy, embraces diversity, advocates creative problem solving and crosses boundaries. En savoir plus
