We are more than excited to share with you our newest initiative - AfterCovid.City!

After months of preparation, we can proudly share with you that Placemaking Europe has launched an online initiative and festival about the role of public space for recovery.

What is AfterCovid.City?

AfterCovid.City is an initiative that celebrates social proximity in times of physical distance, reclaiming the role of people and places to shape a post-covid world for the better. This initiative operates flexibly, with hyper-local events in our partner cities and global streaming for the wider Placemaking Europe network to tune into.

Importantly, AfterCovid.City works towards a Global Co-creative Charter for public space for recovery in relation to housing and planning, social infrastructure, mobility and accessibility, culture, digital city, living and jobs, creative bureaucracy, health and wellbeing and climate action. The guidance on how to facilitate your our workshop will be published open-source in late August for the wider network to apply in their local contexts from Oct 1-29. The collective global charter will be created from the submitted local charters  during Oct 29 - 30 and published on World Cities Day on Oct 31st, 2021.

What are upcoming moments that AfterCovid.City partners with? 

Oct 5th - 7th: Superilla Barcelona - The AfterCovid.City

• A 3 day festival in Barcelona about the role of public space as a mechanism for bold progress into the future beyond the pandemic, co-organised between The AfterCovid.City initiative and the Municipality of Barcelona (Ajuntament de Barcelona) .
