Join the Global Designing Cities Team, led by their Chair, Janette Sadik-Khan at Habitat III in Quito, Ecuador from the 17th -19th of October!
Sessions hosted by the global team will range from presentations and discussions, to pop up events and active, audience engaging workshops. The presentations on the content of the Global Street Design Guide will explain multiple benefits of street design and discuss how the ‘People’ and ‘Place’ approach is the way forward to designing urban streets. These sessions will showcase street designs that challenge the status quo, highlight best practice examples from around the world, and bring to light ‘ What is possible?’ in the public realm.
Please find a list of all the NACTO-GDCI events below, supported by our various collaborators and partners, and feel free to contact us for more information at global@nacto.org
GDCI marks this World Children's Day with the release of two new booklets, “How to Engage Kids in Street Design” and “How to Evaluate Street Transformations Near Schools.”
In 2023, ten cities across four continents started designing their streets for kids. Collectively, the cohort reclaimed over 40,000 SqM of public space that prioritizes children and caregivers, engaged over 4,000 children in the process, and trained 140 practitioners.
Learn how street transformations designed for children can be scaled up and made permanent.
