Public spaces play a vital role in urban democracy since they enable collective usage and reflection. One of the ways to make open public spaces more attractive and inclusive in modern times full of busyness is through the use of innovative digital technologies. Mobile and Internet-based interventions into public spaces deploy a number of strategies – from gathering data through GIS, syntax mapping to using digital tools to collect ideas and opinions of stakeholders. Digitization may often lead to bottom-up initiatives where the citizens and other stakeholders voluntarily employ their talent and resources to enhance the quality of life and solve problems of urbanized societies. This chapter presents methodological Digital Co-Creation Assessment Framework which considers a variety of aspects in the transformation of open spaces to co-creative systems: socio-cultural contexts, multi-stakeholder perspective, diversity in needs, incentives for participation of different groups and cooperation capabilities. The framework provides a useful approach to explore initiatives of digital co-creation as it allows to identify potential areas of improvement and to compare case studies on common indicators. However, definition of complex socio-technical systems, such as digital co-creation, is unavoidably partial, contextspecific and temporary. To test the applicability of the evaluation tool, the authors have chosen to analyse the transformation of Aukštamiestis district in Vilnius from a private space to a public place by conducting a case study analysis. The transformational nature of selected case study allowed to identify the limitations of proposed model and define the areas of improvement for applicability in varied contexts.

- This chapter discusses topics of interest produced in the context of a pilot phase of thematic workshops on urban planning with teenagers in the Alvalade neighbourhood (Lisbon). The workshops were developed to encompass topics of interest relating to teenagers’ perceptions, representations and uses of space. Another focus was on perceptions and uses of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Finally, the workshops tackled the opportunities for participation and civic engagement and teenagers’ contribution in the design and planning of public open spaces. On the one hand, this contribution reflects on how to engage teenagers in critically thinking about the city-making process. Along this line, it reflects on teenagers’ participation and placemaking and compares initial expectations of researchers with the emerging topics of interest arising within the workshops. But also, on the other hand, it ponders on how to promote in these students a more active civic participation. It is suggested that education for citizenship can be indirectly addressed and explored through the activities conducted within the urban planning workshops. And, through this, another goal can be achieved: empowering teenagers with tools and knowledge to become more active and engaged citizens. Even though this was not initially planned, and therefore no formal evaluation of such results was conducted, it leaves room for reflection in the present and for future work.

- This chapter explores the potential of co-creation for the planning of public open spaces that could be more attentive to different, unequal and diverse social ideas, needs and desires. Co-creation is discussed as an innovative opportunity for learning and (re)thinking urban planning. Exploring ideas, literature and experiences (from the European Project C3Places), the chapter discusses the role of co-creation for involving citizens in placemaking. This reflection addresses co-creation as a collective, contextual and engaged process of learning. From this perspective, co-creation is discussed as an open process of learning about predictable ideas in the relationship between socio-spatial imaginary, requirements, needs and urban design procedures from a transformative perspective.

The contemporary city is a result of plural connections between the historical matrix and the effects of global policies. Immersed in a flux of multiple contents, it seems to respond to an era of transition in which the sense of belonging to an urban space is profoundly tensioned by transformations in the cultural, social, technological and political dimensions of public space. On the one hand, contemporary urban territorialities bring new possibilities to issues related to urban morphology and fabric that are still mainly culturally determined; on the other, contemporary thinking confronts itself with the tendency of a global scenario where public life and contemporary culture are related to consumption and capital circulation. Although relations of belonging and attachment to the urban space may persist, the flow of global conditions seems to have an impact upon collective experience in the urban territory and in the production of public space. These are transformations that may lead not only to the instrumentalization of space but also to the reduction of its ‘public’ value. In the contemporary city we observe particular processes of functional and economic spatializations of the urban where public spaces are not conceived as spaces of a public realm. Noting that the intersection between past/present time-cultural flows should go beyond the (re)production of any new global paradigm of thematic urban configurations, we argue that the theoretical constructs of the contemporary public space, or spaces of public domain, must be representative not of a thematic ‘everywhere-nowhere’ urban environment, but rather of a public life urbanity, one built upon awareness and around political and civic issues.

Information and communication technologies (ICT) have the potential to contribute to the quality and attractiveness of public open spaces and to promote their inclusiveness through a co-creating approach, when ICT tools are used with consideration. There are many different digital tools available and all the time new ones are being developed. However, there is no scholarly consensus on which types of ICT tools are best to use in a specific stage of the co-creation process to effectively support the spatial planning process. This chapter explores the literature and discusses technological and spatial quality as well as user-related aspects of different types of digital tools. Our objective is to define the basis to better understand the different potential of digital tools to meet the needs of people and be useful for all the parties involved in the co-creation process with the focus on planning and development aspects of the quality of public open places. The chapter addresses the challenges faced by urban planners and designers when they wish to integrateICT into the process of planning and design and the complexity of the User – ICT – POS interlink. It also explains stating points for a categorization of digital tools for co-creation. Finally, it proposes a framework for classification of digital tools for co-creation. It also takes up the challenge of identifying the criteria for the assessment of existing ICT tools, their features, added values, suitability and usefulness at a particular stage of the public open space co-creation and development process, as well as paving the way for further analyses of their advantages and disadvantages in comparison to analogue tools.

Sound is one of the most dynamic elements of the public open space in cities. The perception and understanding of this sonic environment by its users or society as a whole is commonly referred to as the soundscape. It depends on the noticeability of the composing sounds; the preference, expectations and beliefs of the users; and the overall context that is set by the visual environment and the envisaged use of the space. The local character and the volatility of the soundscape make it an ideal subject for co-creation involving citizens. Digital technologies are applicable for audiovisually predicting the impact of design options. Auralisation, either ab initio or based on multichannel recordings, still involves technological challenges that will be explored in this chapter. Digital technologies can also be used for adding sound accents that allow to change the character of the soundscape, e.g. making it livelier or increasing its mental restoration potential. Such digitally augmented soundscapes can be the direct result of a co-creation effort with the users of the public open space. The innovative combination of creating a tailored soundscape and the ability to achieve this through a co-creation process has a promising potential impact on the user experience in public open spaces.

- Bexiga is a historic and popular neighbourhood in São Paulo, situated between the ‘old’ city centre and the well-known banking district of Avenida Paulista. The public spaces in Bexiga thrive, despite disinvestment and lack of formal urban design initiatives. While some authors attest an ongoing dereliction of duty by the city administration towards this traditional neighbourhood, others celebrate the relative preservation of Bexiga’s architectural and cultural heritage. It is between neglect and resistance as social spaces that Bexiga’s public spaces are shaped. This chapter explores the collective nature of everyday use and its role not only as creator of the neighbourhood’s public spaces but also as designer of these spaces, albeit in latent form, through processes of use and appropriation. This rather informal character is addressed from the perspective of historical-critical research on the collective construction and evolution of Bexiga’s public spaces. Such informality provides juxta-positions of past and present, as well as of change and continuity. Led by an empirical field research, this chapter analyses the construction of public space through use and appropriation. Findings reveal that the informal character of public space implies a more fluid spatiality and relies significantly on its temporality and its collective character. The dynamics of everyday design is the result of a range of organised and impromptu actions, in such a way that an organised event can endure unexpected uses in the surrounding areas, embodying a fluid public space. There is an underlying logic in the location of these spaces, close to housing and cultural hubs. It is the persistent everyday repetition of ephemeral acts of use and appropriation that creates and designs vibrant living public spaces in the neighbourhood. This creation plays an important role in the cultural preservation of Bexiga, acting as a reinforce-ment of its collective origins and character.

For decades, alternative (to carbon) sources of energy in Sweden have been linked to hydroand nuclear power. However, this is set to change as the Swedish government’s agenda has placed extraordinary emphasis on renewables. The implementation of renewables in Sweden poses several challenges. Literature shows that two main aspects deter local communities from embracing large renewable projects: lack of acceptance (of the impacts) and lack of participation (in the making and benefits). Sweden has a long tradition of stakeholder engagement in state-funded projects in the form of participatory meetings and written feedbacks. However, other participatory techniques are less established. Since 2014, we have engaged in research projects dealing with energy landscapes, design thinking, and what we have recently named “resourceful communities”. The aim of this chapter is to report on the results of our recent projects that engage with the above-mentioned concepts/ strategies to foster collaboration and understanding between end-users and other stakeholders.

JPI Urban Europe exists to tackle the grand societal challenge of sustainable urbanisation. It involves the collaboration of more than 20 European countries, with their ministries and funding agencies, drawing on national programming to coordinate and shape joint transnational activities. So far, more than 80 projects have been funded by seven joint calls whereof four have been in cooperation with Horizon 2020, with one more in the pipeline, and a few strictly in collaboration between member states. Currently developing collaborations with the Belmont Forum1 and with China (NSFC), we continue to answer to the spirit of urgency expressed in international policies such as the UN Agenda 2030. As Wolfram et al (2019: 437) points to, many, if not most, of the challenges in the UN Agenda 2030 have to be tackled in urban settings in one way or another. We do this by adopting particularly Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 11 as a gateway to other SDGs, and by shaping common frameworks, building critical mass in urban research and innovation, and mobilising a broad range of actors. The aim is to support local urban action for experimenting with and testing ways to tackle challenges, e.g. in resource use, mobility, housing, urban liveability, energy, etc. – activities whose ongoing effects result in feedback loops that include international sharing and dialogue on transition pathways. Ultimately, it compiles evidence on how to proceed with urban transformations that align with global goals and targets. To support local action and urban policy, JPI Urban Europe has adopted a challenge -driven approach to research and innovation in order to avoid the risks of ill-suited solutions developed by research and innovation actors and to take into account challenges as they are articulated by the problem owners. Since 2019, this approach has somewhat merged with a dilemma-driven approach where the ‘wickedness’ and

Since 2019, this approach has somewhat merged with a dilemma-driven approach where the ‘wickedness’ and","PeriodicalId":214794,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Territory","volume":"147 17","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133390165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Web 2.0 has brought a plethora of new tools (such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and others) and new functionalities, for instance, the ability to co-create web content. The question that is being asked is whether these applications and online tools can be used as an alternative to non-electronic tools for participation in spatial planning processes. The co-creation process that these tools enable is also participation. Participation in urban planning is an important part of space planning that we share with different users of planned space. The chapter shows how the theory of participation can be associated with participatory methods that are used in spatial planning. And how to use them when choosing and creating electronic Web 2.0 tools of. However, to make the use of electronic tools easier for non-professionals from the field of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), we have selected electronic tools designed for collaboration and participation to be integrated into a generative web framework. Various electronic tools are described in this chapter, with different ways of using in the processes of participation and co-creation. One tool that was developed for the needs of a certain European project from the field of integration of local initiatives in revitalizing urban public spaces of contemporary cities and could be used for other similar purposes will be described in more detail. An analysis of the tool used and the responses of those who used it will also be presented.
Web 2.0带来了大量的新工具(如Twitter、Facebook、Instagram等)和新功能，例如，共同创建网络内容的能力。人们提出的问题是，这些应用程序和在线工具是否可以作为参与空间规划过程的非电子工具的替代方法。这些工具支持的共同创造过程也是参与。参与城市规划是空间规划的重要组成部分，我们与规划空间的不同用户共享。本章展示了参与理论如何与空间规划中使用的参与式方法相关联。以及在选择和创建电子Web 2.0工具时如何使用它们。然而，为了让资讯及通讯科技领域的非专业人士更容易使用电子工具，我们选择了一些专为协作和参与而设计的电子工具，并将其整合到一个可生成的网络框架中。本章描述了各种电子工具，在参与和共同创造的过程中有不同的使用方式。其中一种工具是为某个欧洲项目的需要而开发的，该项目来自整合当地倡议以振兴当代城市的城市公共空间的领域，可用于其他类似目的，将更详细地描述。所使用的工具的分析和使用它的人的反应也将被提出。
