THEMATIC GROUPS

AESOP TG PSUC Workshop Helsinki "PUBLIC LIBRARIES AS GENERATORS OF PEACE"

Details
Parent Category: THEMATIC GROUPS
Category: Public Spaces and Urban Cultures
Published: 18 May 2023

The first event of the two-year period 2023-2024 on the working theme 'Public Spaces, Urban Cultures, and Constructing Peace' was successfully concluded.

This AESOP TG PSUC Workshop Helsinki was attended by participants from Finland, Norway, Germany, Italy, and Palestine, in addition to master’s students from the Urban Studies and Planning (USP) programme at Aalto University. The event included visits to two public libraries in Helsinki with presentations from designers and library staff, presentations by participants, and a workshop, which ended in a public discussion at the Oodi Library. Discussions that started with public libraries as generators of peace expanded to address topics related to the location of libraries within planning processes, funding of libraries, participatory approaches, their changing programmes and relation to public spaces were discussed.

Thanks to  Christine Mady, Hossam Hewidy, Ebba Högström, and Matej Nikšič for organizing and bringing this event to life!

LAND POLICY READING CLUB

Details
Parent Category: THEMATIC GROUPS
Category: Planning, Law and Property rights
Published: 20 April 2023

How are planning and law related? How can spatial planners’ interventions in property rights be justified? Who benefits from spatial planning in a society committed to the rule of law?

Last year, our Land Policy Reading Club was dedicated to re-reading classic literature on land policy. In 2023, we re-read more current literature on land, property, and spatial planning. Please find more information on the LAND POLICY READING CLUB here: readingclub.landpolicy.de 

The (online) reading club is organized in cooperation with the International Academic Association on Planning, Law, and Property Rights (PLPR) and the AESOP Thematic Group on Planning, Law and Property Rights.

To accept our invitation, please register at readingclub.landpolicy.de or contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
