Public spaces are the places where cities are winning or losing the battle for full post-pandemic recovery. In the op-ed I wrote for Eco in Città I highlight some of the main challenges that European cities need to tackle to preserve the transformative power of public spaces - Foster pedestrianization to promote mixed use of streets and squares - ⁠Preserve outdoor activities and occupation of public soil for business activities - ⁠Widen the networks of bike lanes in cities for sustainable mobility While many cities around Europe are reversing decisions taken during the pandemic emergency, the need for bold strategies preserving the use of public spaces is stronger than ever.

Its Day 3 of the Co Habitat Network 10th Anniversary Conference in Geneva and Anja Lazar from our Central and Eastern Europe partner Zadrugator/ MOBA Housing SCE explains that despite governments, in particular Slovenia, insisting people want to own their own home, their research shows that what is really important to people is affordability, safe and habitable housing and security of tenure as opposed to the type of tenure.

The work the Waterfront Alliance does is about more than just water — it's about the future of the entire region and beyond. We achieve change through collaborations, education, and our own initiatives and campaigns, and by inspiring others to become changemakers. We believe to improve the health of people and environment, we must have clear leadership, approach problems holistically, and fund community- and science-based solutions in a way that is transparent and prioritizes equity and justice. The 2024 Waterfront and Resilience Platform captures the key areas of our policy and advocacy work, where we strive toward communities and a nation that are prepared for the climate crisis and committed to building excitement where water meets land.

[#AIVPVenice2023] 📸 A look back at the AIVP Deep Dive: Port City Community engagement 🗓 17th November 2023 The city of Saint-John (Canada) has seen its port activity grow rapidly in recent years, both as a result of changes in maritime traffic and infrastructure expansions. The strong commitment of local actors and the port authority have helped reduce nuisance for residents and optimize the positive repercussions for the territory. Certain challenges remain to be overcome, notably in terms of decarbonization and biodiversity. But there is a real collective conception of the city-port relationship in Saint-John, with permanent committees, online and real-world consultations, and staff members whose tasks are entirely dedicated to the interaction between the port and urban worlds.
