Join us to demonstrate, together, the value of public space: arguably the most effective and equitable investment a city can make. Well-designed and well-governed public spaces are multipliers; they unlock other forms of impact such as innovation, inclusion, community resilience, and long-term investment.
The programme brings together participants from a range of city departments – urban planning, culture, environment, social services, mobility — working together toward a shared agenda. The strength of the programme lies in these cross-departmental collaborations, where ideas are tested, adapted, and scaled within real institutional systems.
The next two-year cycle of Cities in Placemaking will continue this journey through a renewed structure:
If your city is ready to take this step, apply before the end of the year to join the new cohort and become part of a European movement of practitioners changing city governance from within.
