Scale and Sustainability: Highlights of the Streets for Kids 2023 Projects
Learn how street transformations designed for children can be scaled up and made permanent.
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
