Tomorrow I have the huge excitement and honour to be participating (for the first time in my life) to the World Urban Forum 12 Egypt. Besides learning from leaders from all around the world, I can't wait for our panel discussion with PlacemakingX peers, representing Placemaking Europe, on how the local and regional placemaking networks can bring forward systemic change and impact on different scales. Grateful to PlacemakingX and Ethan Kent for the opportunity to be part of this.
Headed to the World Urban Forum 12 Egypt with dozens of amazing PlacemakingX leaders to learn, connect, and collaborate with 36,000+ urban leaders from 182 countries. Let me know if you are going or there there are people going that I should meet. Some of the events I will be speaking at during #WUF12: #WorldUrbanForum #Cities #UrbanDevelopment
