Community engagement and the public realm

Living Streets are running a conference on 'Community engagement and the public realm,'
Wednesday 4 July 2007, London.

The challenge for local authorities is to find ways to engage their communities in service provision – particularly streets and the public realm. This conference will set out the new requirements on community engagement, and how this will affect the way public space is designed and managed. It will hear about some of the new tools which are being used to engage residents. It will look at innovative ways to ensure that it’s not just ‘the same voices’ which are being heard. And finally, it will showcase some of the best examples of community engagement from around the UK.

Judging by the cost, it's just aimed at professionals, reducing the chance of getting a real mix of people. Details.
