Local Cultural Flavors’ objective is to improve policies supporting places unable to fully exploit their cultural legacies due to less-advantaged locations. This is the status quo analysis of the region reflecting situation in 2020.
África é o continente de urbanização mais rápido do mundo . Com um crescimento médio urbano de 3,4% , a população urbana do continente está projectado para atingir 1,2 bilhões em 2050. Isso significa que 60% de todos os africanos estarão vivendo em cidades , acima dos 40%. Um crescimento tão rápido é comumente acompanhado por desafios tais como alimentos e escassez de água e habitação inadequada e infra-estrutura. No entanto, com uma proporção tão grande do ambiente urbano ainda a ser construído, cidades africanas também representam uma oportunidade única para evitar os erros do passado e resiliência incorporar nas políticas e planeamento.
O Sumário executivo do Projecto Morgenstadt: City Lab Lisbon, que contou com a colaboração da Lisboa E-Nova, resume as principais conclusões do trabalho realizado pela equipa do Instituto Fraunhofer IAO, iniciado em Setembro de 2015, sobre gestão inteligente e sustentável da cidade. Lisboa foi a terceira cidade escolhida por este centro de investigação alemão que estuda as resiliências das cidades e propõe soluções de gestão inteligente para combater o desperdício e preparar propostas de soluções integradas e sustentáveis, seja do ponto de vista económico, ou ambiental.

Pursuing any development or neighborhood plan today involves
working with a myriad of actors beyond professional collaborators
during planning and design phases. These include direct abutters,
surrounding neighbors, elected offi cials, public agencies, opponents
(often), investors, financial institutions, and regulators, all billed as
“stakeholders.” Navigating the shoals created by cadres of stakeholders
is perhaps the greatest challenge to pursuing sophisticated
ideas about and goals for urbanism.
Consensus around goals that arenot very ambitious is, unfortunately, common. However, rather thanwallow in despair about the unpredictable nature of decentralized processes, urban designers must learn to be more effective collaborators,willing participants in true interdisciplinary endeavors, and advocatesfor ideas not always their own, ideas that have the potential
to rally others around higher expectations, not expedient solutions.
Such skills are not always available in a designer’s tool kit.
Some blame the messiness of democratized processes for producing mediocrity.
On the other hand, many can offer examples of substantial benefits to projects as a result of broader community participation.
Then, too, there is that maxim among seasoned urban designers, “To
envision takes talent, to implement takes genius.”
This presentation was given at the 3rd IWA Development Congress "Catalysing Urban Water" which took place in Nairobi in October 2013. Sophie Trémolet presents a roadmap for designing urban sanitation projects. Targeted at donors, policy and decision makers, this roadmap guides the financing of urban sanitation from inception to implementation.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.
