Anna Aigner is an urban planner from Vienna, Austria who works for superwien urbanism. She studied spatial and regional planning at the Vienna University of Technology and at the University of Manchester in England.
The focus of her professional work so far has been in the field of participatory and dialogue-oriented urban and local development or urban and local design. Other focal points of her work are the exploration of experimental and emancipatory planning approaches as well as projects on climate change adaptation and social innovation.
One of her main interests is the question of how urban spaces can be created in close cooperation with the population, what methods and tactics are needed to leave enough "free space" for appropriation processes and what influence self-organisation has on the development of urban spaces.
During her work in the context of an internship at Urbanista/nexthamburg (Hamburg), the local area renewal office (Vienna), the Urban Equipe (Zurich), as well as the work on the PlaceCity project she has already developed and implemented various participation events and workshops. Through that she has gained practical experience of the concept of placemaking in various local contexts.
Within the PlaceCity project, Anna was mainly involved in the development and implementation of the Open Call and the co-creative development of placemaking tools together with local actors in the case of Floridsdorf (Vienna).
Anna strongly believes that it is important to think collaboratively about urban planning, to try new things and to empower the population in order to strengthen communities and make cities more sustainable.
