CASE STUDY

3. CASE STUDY ON PARKS AND PUBLIC GARDENS OF KAZAN

4. KAZAN AND CULTURE
In 2014, the city announced the "Green
Record" program. 140 000 trees and 64
000 shrubs were planted in Kazan, and
more than half a million square meters of
new lawns were laid. As a next step, part
of the "Blooming Kazan" program, more
than 6 million flowers are planted every
year in the city, while local establishments,
business companies and social
institutions come up and design amazing
art objects flowers-made.

5. GOALS AND THE PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION
The goal of the project is to improve the
quality of life of the population by
improving the city environment, and by
creating comfortable and safe conditions
for leisure, recreation and leisure.
The city project "Parks and public gardens of
Kazan City" is aimed at beautifying and
creating public spaces for the city’s residents
and visitors. The basic principle of the
project is to actively involve local residents
and urban communities into the process of
parks and public gardens beautification via
open public project discussions.
Main actions carried out

6. IMPACTS
Open meetings are held regularly
to discuss the development of
public spaces, during which the
municipality received interesting
proposals for events and new
facilities to be implemented in
the parks, but also valuable
comments on the management
of public spaces.
Local residents and activists in particular
have shown an increased interest in the
management of the city’s public parks
through the “participatory design” process.
As the top green area, parks are in a way
"lungs" of the city. Therefore, it is important
to preserve them, as well as to educate in
citizens sense of environmental
responsibility. Ecological communities are
involved in the parks design.
Impact on the territory and population
Impacts on the local government
Impact on culture and on local cultural actors

7. EVALUATION
There are no specific evaluation mechanism
in place regarding this Initiative. However, it is
to be noted that the number of events and
holding applications from organizers in
renovated public spaces has been increasing,
generating higher business activities within
park territories. During the summer season
2017, over 600 events were held in parks and
public gardens. There was also an increase of
the number of parks’ visitors, including in
winter time. During the winter holidays (from
December 22, 2017 to January 8, 2018), 10
key park areas were visited by 178500
people.

8. LITRATURALAL REVIEWS
A public space Public space refers to
areas that are accessible and available
for use by the general public. These
spaces are typically owned and
managed by governmental or public
entities, and they are intended to
serve the community as shared
environments for various activities
and interactions.
The Concept of Public Space

9. LITRATURALAL REVIEWS
The development of Public Space
Today’s definition of public space is
originated in the ideas which came from
the eighteenth century, when the
society was considered more as a
commercial realm. It was different from
previous condition, because individuals
used to be related with others in
traditional ways, such as kinship and
clan. To change this situation, a new
cultural framework which could make a
better communication among all the
strangers was needed.

10. LITRATURALAL REVIEWS
Definition of Public Space in the Modern Society
According to Madanipour (2003: 232-233), ‘Public
Spaces can be described as places outside the
boundaries of individual or small group control,
mediating between private spaces and used for a
variety of often overlapping functional and symbolic
purpose. Descriptively, therefore, public spaces have
been multi-purpose: accessible spaces,
distinguishable from and mediating between
demarcated exclusive territories of households and
individuals.’ Public spaces should be accessible and
open to members in a community.

11. LITRATURALAL REVIEWS
The categories of outdoor activities:
Jan Gehl (1996: 11-13) indicates that
outdoor activities in public space can
be divided into three types: necessary
activities, optional activities, and social
activities.

12. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
is a designated area of land that is
open to the public for recreational
and leisure activities. These parks are
typically owned and maintained by
government authorities, such as local
municipalities or national park
services, with the aim of providing
green spaces and outdoor amenities
for residents and visitors to enjoy.
