Safety in public space is a major issue in cities all over the world. In this workshop, we want to work with students from architecture and urban studies on the question how places in Weimar could be taken as an example on how to increase the security, especially for women. By conducting many activities with young people in the public space we noticed that they easily develop critical thinking on the physical aspects of it, but some immaterial dimensions are more difficult for them to grasp. Among these are the issues related to the link between public space and the feeling of safety. Thanks to some indoor activities that use brainstorming, flipcharts and the wheel of diversity youngsters are guided to reflect on the public space from a point of view of the safety felt by different target groups, mainly looking at how personal identity and safety are interrelated. In this workshop we will use a toolkid that has been established by the initiative „Culture Goes Europe” (CGE). Dr. Ammalia Podlaszewska, chairperson of CGE and architect, will guide the actitivities of this toolkid.
The workshop brings together architecture students from Indonesia and Weimar. Beyond the practical activities related to the CGE toolkid, there will be inputs about the situation of public spaces in Indonesia (by Putu Agustiananda and Nensi Yuli/Yogyarkarta), Italy and Lebanon (Mostapha El Moussaoui), Latin America (Nicolas Goez) and Germany (Frank Eckardt).
The project requires presence and active contribution to the workshop for a testat. For a grade (Note), a written paper needs to be submitted. There will be a preparatory meeting on 9th of october.
