Public Spaces
Public space is a vital component of a prosperous city. Well-designed and managed public spaces are a key asset for a city’s functionality and have a positive impact on its economy, health, climate, safety, integration, and connectivity. Working in some of the most violent regions in the world, the high rates of homicide and crime, increase citizens’ fear particularly in public transportation and public spaces, which contribute to low levels of civic participation, coupled with extreme social and political polarization and distrust. Through our public space revitalization programs, we empower citizens to actively participate in the creation, revitalization, and maintenance of public parks, schools, and health facilities.
