Milestones
Milestone 2: Placemaking Challenges
From June 26 – June 28 the participants of the programme met in Bergen, Norway for the second step of the programme. The aim of this milestone was to understand and dive deeper into the challenges that cities face and could be addressed by placemaking on three scales of challenges: macro-challenges, place-based challenges and organisational challenges.
Milestone 1: Essentials of Placemaking
The first milestone of the Cities in Placemaking programme – Essentials of Placemaking – took place in Amsterdam on 20-22 March 2023 and consisted of a three-day peer-to-peer learning experience to provide a comprehensive introduction to placemaking, its application in the context of urban governance and its implications for long-term systemic change. It was also an opportunity to get to know each other as a team and to align expectations for the long term.
