Design for the Urban Play Comprehensive Development for Childhood
Playing is a universal right for all children, but despite the evidence regarding the benefits it brings for comprehensive development, it has been overvalued and not prioritized in urban agendas. This workshop seeks to create a general understanding of the value of play, clarify how it is directly related to the way in which the urban environment is planned and designed, reflect on the benefits for cities and communities - health, well-being, improvement in the perception of insecurity and in the local economy, among others—, and share strategic points, which any city can implement, to achieve it.

Equitable Park Investments 3 Cities – 3 Stories
Equity in service delivery is a guiding concern of urban park leaders. This presentation will explore how this interest can be turned to a tangible action that makes public parks better for all city residents.
Three legacy urban centers with remarkable diversity in the heartland of America – Minneapolis, Pittsburgh and Louisville – decided to create new comprehensive investment action plans for their park systems focused on driving equitable access to, and investments in, public parks and recreation services and systems for all city residents. These three cities shared a general goal – overcome barriers and historical challenges in the delivery of their park system services that will allow them to prioritize serving the people and neighborhoods that have long been forgotten, underserved, and marginalized.
The action plans of all three cities are based on the principal that everyone, every neighborhood, and every city deserves access to a great public park system, and thus look holistically at the needs of every park, the needs of every neighborhood, and the creation of a system where the public can clearly shape improvement plans.
This session will provide attendees with an overview of developing equitable and transparent investment action plans while exploring the unique opportunities and challenges discovered in each of these three cities.

Express Workshop: The Big Sit x World Urban Parks Don't just do something, sit there
The Big Sit was born out of a premise to bring people together to practice mindfulness meditation in the city. Organized by Mindful Moments in collaboration with the Conscious Cities Index research project, and initiated by a group of volunteers, the first Big Sit took place on Mindfulness Day on 12 September 2020 at Urban Park, Guoco Tower in the CBD of Singapore. The Big Sit has since taken place regularly at various places including Urban Park and Gardens By The Bay in Singapore, as well as London, with the aim of driving purposeful use of urban spaces in the city to improve the mental health and wellbeing of citizens, as well as collectively build a healthier and more conscious society. We envision that The Big Sit will inspire more people to make intentional use of spaces in their cities to practice mindfulness and be able to eventually extend these skills to their personal and professional lives.
What to prepare:
-Participants are encouraged to arrive 10 minutes earlier to set up their practice space.
-Participants are encouraged to dress in comfortable clothing and shoes, and bring along their own yoga mat / large towel to sit on, as well as drinking water.

Propuesta: Clasificación operativa de espacios públicos para el Municipio de Mérida.
El Ayuntamiento de Mérida fortalece el Sistema de Gestión de Espacios Públicos a fin de contar con espacios públicos completos.
Los espacios completos son lugares que promueven el
encuentro social y el desarrollo de diferentes usos y actividades
para el disfrute público, que son parte de la infraestructura
verde generadora de ambientes reguladores del clima y del
paisaje urbano, que articulan la estructura urbana, vinculan los
usos del suelo y propician las actividades económicas, y que
presentan condiciones adecuadas de accesibilidad, inclusión,
confort e imagen que fomentan la identidad y el sentido de
pertenencia.
Sin embargo, uno de los retos más importantes a los que se
enfrenta la administración pública municipal para alcanzar
esa visión de ciudad es contar con información clara, objetiva,
confiable, sistematizada y geográficamente referenciada
de los espacios públicos. De hecho, la información existe;
sin embargo, nombramos los espacios públicos de variadas
formas y los clasificamos por criterios diferentes. Por eso,
reviste particular importancia llegar a acuerdos operativos
que nos permitan planear, diseñar, construir, mantener,
controlar y evaluar nuestros espacios públicos. Por eso, es
importante caracterizar y clasificar los espacios públicos de
Mérida de manera unificada.
Una clasificación permite identificar atributos y elementos de
los espacios públicos de Mérida y, a partir de su organización
en tipos, diferenciarlos y denominarlos. Eso es sólo el principio
de un proceso orientado a conocer, evaluar y transformar
nuestros parques, plazas y calles. Esta clasificación
de espacios públicos debe de ser vista como uno más de los
trabajos, de coordinación transversal entre las dependencias
municipales, que compartimos con los meridanos.

Rescate del Río Cupatitzio
Rescatar los 11 kilómetros de longitud del afluente que cruza el área urbana, a través de la creación de parques lineales. Esta intervención permite la creación de corredores verdes que incluyen espacios públicos para el desarrollo del deporte y la cultura, además que el río forma parte de los barrios tradicionales de la ciudad y que unen al centro histórico.
Actualmente se han implementado 1.5 km de parques, pero la potencialidad de la rivera del río es de 11 kilómetros, unidos por 2 espacios para su recreación, donde nace el Río en el Parque Nacional y donde termina el área urbana con la caída conocida como la Tzararacua.

IDENTIFICACIÓN DE DIFERENTES INSECTOS POLINIZADORES DE CUATRO PARQUES DE LA CIUDAD LATACUNGA
Los parques seleccionados para la investigación son San Francisco, Vicente León, La Filantropía e Ignacio Flores. Se realizó una colecta activa mediante el uso de red entomológica y una colecta pasiva mediante el uso de trampas cromáticas-pegajosas y trampas con cebo. Las muestras fueron conservadas en alcohol al 70% para luego realizar el montaje y toma de fotografías para subirlas a la Aplicación iNaturalist, posterior en la aplicación ayudan con la identificación. Para los índices de diversidad y similaridad se utilizó la ecuación de Shannon-Wiener y Sorensen respectivamente. Para las trampas cromáticas-pegajosas se colectaron 1650 individuos, en las trampas con atrayente se colectaron 7 individuos y con la red entomológica 1150 individuos, para su identificación se consideró solo a los individuos que fueron colectados con la red entomológica. Descartando a los individuos que no están considerados como polinizadores dando un total de 880 individuos polinizadores, con tres órdenes y ocho familias. La familia Sarcophagidae que tiene el 62% del total de abundancia dentro de los cuatro parques. Se determinó que los 880 individuos polinizadores colectados dentro de los cuatro parques representan un índice de diversidad mediante la ecuación de Shannon-Wiener equivalente a 0.87 que demuestra que se tiene una diversidad baja. Además se demuestra una similaridad significativa de 92.3% entre el parque Vicente León y el parque Ignacio Flores.

Modelo de Gestión Colaborativa (MGC) para la recuperación de espacios públicos.
Esta sesión analizará los elementos básicos del MGC que involucra a la iniciativa privada, organizaciones de la sociedad civil y ciudadanos en la creación de espacios públicos incluyentes. Se centrará en los diferentes mecanismos que hacen posible la suma de esfuerzos en la toma de decisiones en el ámbito local y cómo esta participación ofrece nuevas oportunidades, más transparencia, eficiencia en la gestión y calidad de las obras emprendidas.
El proyecto de la “Glorieta Tepeyac” es una aplicación exitosa del Modelo de Gestión Colaborativa donde abordaremos las condiciones particulares, apreciación de la necesidad, técnicas de participación social, legitimación del proyecto, aspectos operativos de la ejecución y formas administrativas que se tradujeron en la necesidad de incorporar un elemento cualitativo de diseño que rebasa ampliamente los contenidos de los planes directores convencionales centrados fundamentalmente en aspectos normativos.
El rescate de espacios públicos erróneamente se ha abordado en términos constructivos (formal y funcional) dejando de lado la dimensión social de la arquitectura y el urbanismo.

Follow up strategies with remote sensing for management of newly planted sites.
With the reduction in the cost of analysis and processing of information, the evolution of SaaS and the availability of satellite images (together with the increase in resolution), nowadays it perfectly viable to develop methodologies to use remote images with SIG to do a follow up of urban forest management. The ease and widespread use of mobile devices allow to locate any picture easily and later import it into a SIG to have a visual confirmation of observations made in the field. The following paper shows how to translate a Park inventory and reforestation data base (from i-Tree) first to a commercial SIG tool to follow up on conditions and development. Second, with another SaaS image handler follow up on tree health with NDVI measurements. These measurements are derived from images of the PLANETSCOPE satellite constellation that has a 3 m/pixel resolution. With these images it is possible to create a baseline to compare current values of NDVI and therefore have a workflow that allows to detect potential threats to trees in urban situations and react accordingly.

Assessing the Social Sustainability of Parque Central in Juárez, Mexico
Urban parks, especially large ones, play a crucial role in urban sustainability. Although the social axis of sustainability in parks has been thoroughly addressed in developed countries, this important indicator has not been fully understood in developing countries. Moreover, when it comes to studying urban parks, the social perspective is often approached from the point of view of a limited set of disciplines, thus leaving many issues unaddressed along the way. This paper aims to develop an evaluation strategy that takes into account 11 variables to assess the social sustainability of an urban park. A survey (n=388) was conducted in the Central Park of Juarez, Mexico. The study covered two seasons (winter and summer) and two weekday scenarios (weekdays and weekends). The study made it possible to identify usage patterns, frequency of visitation, time spent and other social variables related to the social sustainability axis. The results are discussed in light of the social importance of urban parks, providing strategies for improving sustainability and closing management gaps. Finally, conclusions are presented, as well as an agenda for future research.

Neuronic Parks
This presentation looks at the concept that I have called ’Neuronic Parks’. This term refers to the neurological pathways unitised in the brain which allow us to access feelings of well-being, logic, muscular responses, future planning and our sense of being.
By extrapolating the modality of our neurological pathways and considering the basic mechanism of synaptic linking through dendrites and neuron response we can develop planning concepts that create more sustainable, more connected, and more multifaceted parkways, greenways, and blue-ways.
As urbanisation intensifies, we must consider the space we require to connect communities first, through planning models that create connectivity rather than allowing our parkways to be relegated to isolated pockets of green-space within communities often provisoned by the developer of the land.
The concept of Neuronic Parks connects local pocket parks with National Parks utilising existing greenways, sports fields, shopping centres, local parks, coastal walkways, beaches, empty land and bridal trails etc by creating new ‘pathways’ that are strengthened and expanded or conversely, minimised and reduced based on inter-community usage and designed accessibility.

Infancia y Ciudad: el juego y la participación en los espacios abiertos
El juego urbano y la participación infantil en procesos urbanos son dos ejercicios básicos para el desarrollo integral de la infancia. El primero se limita debido a una pobre oferta de espacios abiertos y de una casi inexistente oferta de espacios públicos urbanos de juego; el segundo se limita por la carencia de mecanismos vinculantes concebidos para que niñas y niños puedan emitir opiniones, propuestas o interrogantes sobre la forma en la que se está modificando el entorno urbano en el que habitan, y que afecta su calidad de vida. Sin embargo, ambas cuestiones son parte de los derechos de la infancia reconocidos internacionalmente, y ratificados en México; por lo tanto, al no garantizárselos, se está automáticamente negando la importancia que tienen.

Las áreas privadas de conservación una opción a los efectos del cambio climático
los propietarios, ejidatarios o comuneros pueden optar voluntariamente a destinar sus propiedades (sin perderla) a acciones de conservación y protección de los recursos naturales y su biodiversidad. con esto el gobierno local reconoce este interes y certifica la propiedad para que se pueda gestionar recursos de todo tipo para lograr elaborar el plan de manejo y con ellos tener la información de que proyectos sostenibles se pueden desarrollar en estos sitios; esto resulta como un apoyo económico al propietario y se ganan superficies destinadas a la conservación sin perder los servicios ambientales que estos generan a la región.

Entre resistencias y paradojas. Historia del Parque de Educación Ambiental Granja Amojileca.
La ciudad de Chilpancingo, Guerrero, es la primera capital nacional de México. Ninguna otra localidad del país tiene el privilegio histórico de haber atestiguado la instauración del Primer Congreso de Anáhuac, la promulgación de los Sentimientos de la Nación —el antecedente primigenio de nuestra Constitución Política— y la firma del primer documento de Independencia frente a España. Desde 1970 es la sede de los poderes del estado de la República erigido como tal en 1849 en honor al consumador de la guerra de Independencia: Vicente Guerrero Saldaña. A pesar de eso, es la capital estatal más rezagada en todos los sentidos, particularmente en servicios de entretenimiento colectivo para los vecinos y sus familias: sólo ha contado por décadas con dos espacios propios de convivencia: el zoológico Zoochilpan (1978) y el Museo La Avispa (1998). En 2015 se le consideró la peor ciudad para vivir en México y en 2018 figuró entre las seis ciudades más inseguras del país. Además, el río que apuntalaba su ecosistema, ha sido extinguido a su paso por la zona urbana para convertirlo en colector de aguas negras. En ese contexto inmensamente adverso se fundó el Parque de Educación Ambiental Granja Amojileca como una iniciativa académica de vinculación que durante más de quince años ha sido el proyecto más exitoso en toda la Historia de la Universidad Autónoma de Guerrero, con el registro insólito de más de un millón de visitantes a un lugar sin atractivos naturales, con la imaginación y voluntad altruista y creativa de una familia, y un equipo de trabajo de profesores, estudiantes y vecinos, a partir de la labor de conservación del venado cola blanca, como sitio ancla, y una serie de servicios complementarios de recreación educativa, labor que mantiene al espacio como el único en su tipo en todo el sur del país. Su plan mercadológico original, fundado en la imagen de una resortera como arma para promover la cultura de la Paz, lo ha convertido en el principal espacio de convivencia familiar y grupal en la primera capital del país, a 500 años de la caída de la gran Tenochtitlán, a 200 años de consumada la guerra de Independencia y en la plena vigencia de la modernidad tecnológica.

Unpaving Paradise to Put in a Park for All - Presidio Tunnel Tops
As an urban national park, the central focus of the Presidio is to transform a historic former army base into parkland that is inclusive and accessible to all, particularly communities that have traditionally been underrepresented in national parks -- BIPOC and low-income visitors, and visitors with disabilities. This session will explore how the renewal of the derelict freeway approach to the Golden Gate Bridge propelled a vision to create 14-acres of new parklands — the Presidio Tunnel Tops — over the top of new freeway tunnels. Community action, private philanthropy, and excellent design were marshaled to create a multi-faceted place for renewal, play and civic gathering designed to transform the Presidio of San Francisco into a national park site for all.

Corredor de Bienestar en la Ribera del Río Cupatitzio
En la ciudad de Uruapan, existe carencia y poca accesibilidad a espacios públicos deportivos, culturales y recreativos al aire libre, principalmente en la cabecera municipal se tienen 4.2 m2 por habitante cuando el mínimo aceptable por la OMS es de 9 m2.
Como resultado de lo anterior, Uruapan se ha propuesta una meta para la creación de un corredor de bienestar en las riberas del río Cupatitzio, que ayude al rescate de los 11 kilómetros de longitud, desde la manantial rodilla del diablo que provee agua a la ciudad, hasta la caída conocida como la Tzararacua, desde el año 2000 se han impulsado iniciativas, y para 2020 se han concluído 2 etapas. Estos espacios son potenciales para desarrollar corredores deportivos, recreativos, culturales y económicos mientras se restaura un ecosistema urbano.
Además, la implementación de geovallas ayudará a proporcionar información como el cuidado de la salud, la cultura y/o promociones de negocios en las cercanías que ayudan a la reactivación económica del comercio.
La recuperación del corredor permitirá incrementar el área de espacios públicos por habitantes, a reducir las emisiones de los Gases de Efecto Invernadero, disminuir las islas de calor, el saneamiento de las aguas y la visibilización del río.

El parque urbano como indicador e integrador social.
Entendiendo el parque urbano como elemento de múltiples beneficios para los ejidos urbanos, la integración social y el crecimiento de las ciudades. Por a veces no resulta fácil su gestión, muchas veces las mismas comunidades beneficiarias, son reacias a la creación de nuevas áreas públicas. En muchas localidades de Tucumán – Argentina, la falta de espacio público, es respaldada por el destino privatizado, fraccionario e individualizado del territorio. Existe un entendimiento generalizado sobre el espacio público, parques y plazas, como áreas solo de las grandes ciudades.

Cómo insertar un parque urbano, en un territorio con necesidades básicas sin resolver. Cuán real y medible es el beneficio de crear un parque integrador. Cómo se utiliza al patrimonio, las costumbres e ideologías, como impedimentos para las mejoras urbanísticas y la calidad de vida de la población en su conjunto. Quiénes son los actores involucrados en la toma de decisión de crear un parque integrador y cómo la voluntad política y el consenso comunitario, son claves para su éxito.

La réconciliation et les parcs publics
La réconciliation, une préoccupation nationale, a été intégrée au cadre stratégique du Plan directeur du parc Jean-Drapeau. Nous y présenterons les stratégies et les démarches effectuées pour assurer sa mise en oeuvre à partir d'actions concrètes. Les États et les municipalités ont aujourd’hui la responsabilité de mettre en oeuvre les principes nationaux et internationaux en matière de réconciliation. Le parc Jean-Drapeau, plus grand et ancien parc de Montréal, qui porte en lui l’héritage autochtone, en a fait une priorité et une orientation stratégique. La transformation annoncée dans son plan directeur fera du parc un lieu plus accessible, diversifié, vert et public. L’abondance d’expériences, de patrimoines, d’espaces et de contact avec les gens, le paysage et la nature répondra aux besoins et aspirations des citoyens de même qu’aux enjeux des parcs urbains. L’inclusion, comme principe directeur, guide notre manière de penser, d’aborder et d’aménager le parc. C’est dans ce contexte que nous avons développé notre engagement envers la vérité et la réconciliation. La démarche effectuée depuis 2019, l’élaboration d’un plan d’action et les principales actions mise en œuvre en 2021 seront présentées. Par cela, nous espérons inciter d’autres gestionnaires de parcs à s’investir envers les peuples autochtones et la valorisation de leur présence historique et de leurs pratiques culturelles, tout en ouvrant la discussion sur d’autre initiatives à privilégier pour développer ce nouveau champ d’expertise en architecture de paysage et en gouvernance de parc public.

Australian Cloud Forest Garden – Botanic Gardens and Ex situ Conservation
The Australian Cloud Forest Collection (ACFC) is a new feature garden for the Dandenong
Ranges Botanic Garden in Olinda, Victoria, Australia. Designed to showcase and conserve endangered flora from Queensland's Wet Tropics World Heritage Area.
The project is part of the multi-agency Tropical Mountain Plants Science Project, led by
the Australian Tropical Herbarium at James Cook University (Cairns), Australian National
Botanic Garden (Canberra) and the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria (Cranbourne), and is
focused on the conservation of mountain top of Far North Queensland. These
mountain top ecosystems are unique globally, with many of the
species, both plants and animals, found nowhere else on earth. Climate modelling
predicts this area could be subject to drastic habitat loss within as little as 15 years, with
droughts in the cloud forest being longer, hotter, drier and more frequent.
The aim of the project is to collect and secure the most diverse
'captive' collection possible, holding them in ex-situ conservation collections in multiple
botanic gardens, including the Dandenong Ranges Botanic Garden.
The flagship species of this display will be the two species of native Rhododendrons. Designed by Andrea Proctor Landscapes and supported by the Australian Rhododendron Society and Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, the project is now at construction phase and will be a great new visitor facility with important conservation outcomes.

El papel educativo ambiental de los bosques urbanos
La educación ambiental es un medio transformador de la realidad socioambiental, metamorfosis que de manera urgente se necesita para acceder a una alternativa de vida que restaure los efectos de la Mega crisis ambiental en la cual estamos sumergidos todos los seres vivos de este planeta y así restablecer la relación de reciprocidad humano-ambiente. Los parques y bosques urbanos debido a sus características y a la dinámica social que se desarrolla en ellos poseen un potencial enorme como centros de educación y cultura ambiental y afortunadamente algunos lo aprovechan poniendo en práctica programas educativos ambientales, sin embargo, es común encontrar esfuerzos planteados de manera reduccionistas que no logran alcanzar un nivel alto de formación. De aquí parte la importancia de establecer un modelo de evaluación que resalte los principios pedagógicos ambientales aplicados en los programas, cuestione sus logros y facilite la propuesta de mejoras que contribuyan verdaderamente a la trasformación socioambiental.
El presente modelo de evaluación aún se encuentra en desarrollo y es parte del proyecto de tesis de la autora para lograr el título de Maestra en Educación Ambiental con enfoque en la profesionalización del hacer educativo ambiental en parques por parte de la Universidad de Guadalajara.

6 PLANNING TIPS ON HOW TO CREATE INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUNDS IN CITIES
All children have a right to play, no matter their age, ability, and background. And all families should be able to access leisure offerings in their neighborhood. Statistics show us that this is far from the case. So how can city playgrounds be inclusive of diverse user needs, including those of children and adults with disabilities? And can park playgrounds cater for all and still be thrilling, without disproportionate costs? Join this webinar to learn more about park planning for active, fun playgrounds for all, that are truly inclusive.

Changing the narrative through park management
Thanks to the design and its implementation, it is possible to change the urban image. Still, even more importantly, a park's proper management can change the narrative and meaning of a space. An abandoned park with a low-security perception can become a family destination and women gathering place. The indicators measured in Parque Cuscatlán show that we can recover areas that we thought were lost. The good news is that this exercise can be replicated, and with the case of Parque Cuscatlán and the multiple measurements that have been made in this space, very positive results can be anticipated. Public-private partnerships can achieve this goal if they are adequately supported with the help of legal instruments such as agreements and other tools such as effective communication and the search for consensus. It is crucial to change the paradigm that projects end when the construction work is finished and move on to a new model in which taking care of what is built is equally valuable. This implies including the community and the users fostering desirable behaviors to maintain the spaces. It is also vital to have a robust activation plan and the necessary financing for its implementation.

High-quality, Innovative, Resilient, Inclusive - Not buzz words but the outcome for open space
Describing our open spaces as High-quality, Innovative, Resilient and Inclusive should be the standard.
COVID-19 has made us appreciate the role of public open spaces in supporting our health and wellbeing, sense of community, and civic lives more than ever. Areas with poor access to public open space and waterways suffered during COVID-19 lockdowns, and the inequitable impacts on Western Sydney were widely observed.
Despite widespread recognition of the value of public open space to the people of NSW, public open space is all too often treated as a “nice to have”. But not everyone has access to public open space, and the quality of the public open space we do have varies across the state.
Future public open space must be better planned and coordinated by the many Government agencies and local councils involved in land management, to meet the needs of communities as the NSW population grows by almost 3 million people over next 50 years.

COVID-19 has made us appreciate the role of public open spaces in supporting our health and wellbeing, sense of community, and civic lives more than ever. Areas with poor access to public open space and waterways suffered during COVID-19 lockdowns, and the inequitable impacts on Western Sydney were widely observed.
Despite widespread recognition of the value of public open space to the people of NSW, public open space is all too often treated as a “nice to have”. But not everyone has access to public open space, and the quality of the public open space we do have varies across the state.
Future public open space must be better planned and coordinated by the many Government agencies and local councils involved in land management, to meet the needs of communities as the NSW population grows by almost 3 million people over next 50 years.
In this session you will learn about what the NSW Government Open Space program is doing to ensure that High-quality, Innovative, Resilient, Inclusive are not buzz words, they are the intention, the scope and the outcome being achieved.

Paris « Tree Strategy » for planting 170 000 trees by 2026
Trees are Paris’ best ally in the face of climate change. Trees contribute to the fight against global warming, to cooling the air and reducing heat islands, to improving rainwater management, to maintaining a diversity of fauna and flora, to improving air quality and to the psychological and physiological health of the inhabitants.
The Mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, wanted to put greening at the heart of her mandate, with the objective of massively increasing the place of nature in the city. By increasing the number of natural spaces and planting wherever possible, we will move from a city with gardens to a true "garden city", a more beautiful city, but also a city that is cooler and more resilient to global warming. A real paradigm shift that places nature at the heart of urban planning.
This is why the City of Paris has committed to planting 170,000 trees during the term of office and to its own “Tree Strategy” to promote 23 environmental actions adopted at the Paris Council in October 2021, range from new green spaces and landscape projects, public education and technical recommendations to landowners regarding tree care, to scientific studies on tree’s behaviour in urban areas.

5 clues from Environmental Psychology that designers of recreational public spaces should know
The growing population living in cities demands a paradigm shift in the design process of public spaces to improve the quality of urban life. While the main object of study of Environmental Psychology is the human-ambience interrelationship, this proposal aims to present 5 key concepts that demonstrate this interaction. The contributions are organized in two sections. The first is related to symbolic concepts which include: (i) appropriation; (ii) place identity; and (iii) place attachment. The second, focuses on practical theories to be applied in the design processes: (iv) perception; and (v) restorative capacity. The main goal is to articulate these assumptions with the architectural realm to guide design logics for the benefit of city dwellers.

Buenos Aires: Public Space Design Manual with a Gender and Diversity Perspective
To develop transformative public policies it is not enough to highlight inequalities and their consequent problems, you have to assume uncomfortable places and modify traditional courses of action.
The city and its public space have a fundamental role in the composition of the social structure and in the relationships that occur among its inhabitants. In this sense, the design of the public space has the responsibility of generating greater guarantees regarding the universal right to transit, inhabit and enjoy the city.
This Manual, published by the Government of the City of Buenos Aires in March 2022, exposes conceptual notions and hard data regarding the inequality prevailing in society and its empirical translation into the urban experience, with the intention of describing and measuring this problem. It then proposes tools for research and participation, to incorporate the perspective of people. Finally, it establishes design guidelines to consider when thinking and planning the space. It culminates with three case studies from the city of Buenos Aires.
This publication seeks to be a contribution to the challenge of mitigating the inequalities prevailing in society, with their translation into differential experiences, and promoting an equitable urban experience.

White Elephant: New public space. Consensus, participation and urban transformation.
The Elefante Blanco Public Park is located in the southern area of the City of Buenos Aires, in the center of Barrio 15 (called the Hidden City), a neighborhood that has been neglected and built by its inhabitants. The park, as well as a new government headquarters, are located where a building from the 1930s used to stand, abandoned since the 1950s. The “White Elephant”, as it was known, was destined to be the largest tuberculosis hospital in Latin America, but the political and historical vicissitudes did not allow its completion. Instead, a new neighborhood was gradually formed around it while sheltering families and organizations within it.
From 2016, the Government of the City of Buenos Aires determined that the building, structurally irrecoverable, was demolished. Thus, the design and execution of an unprecedented work in the city was given way, which incorporated 12,000 m² of public green space, where the needs of the affected population were prioritized, generating consensus and promoting a new physical and symbolic appropriation of the built environment.

Parque de la Estación: a case of community ownership in Buenos Aires
The Parque de la Estación (hereinafter PdE) is one of the newest parks in the City of Buenos Aires and one of the most varied and intensive. In the projection of the park, elements were combined that allow us to interpret its current dynamics. Its emergence from a neighborhood demand, the consequent community appropriation that neighbors have made since the beginning of the project, the diversity of profiles that inhabit the park and the variety and intensity of use , with some of the components present in their daily lives.
It will seek to deepen the stages of project, work and life of this park as factors that contributed to generate this successful dynamic.

innovation, knowledge and talent contributing to the economic and environmental development of the City.
The Plaza Houssay, located between the faculties of Economics, Medicine, Pharmacy and Dentistry of the University of Buenos Aires, is a pass-through spot for more than 170,000 students. Despite the significant daily flow of people, the gastronomic and cultural offer of the environment was very low and security is something that neighbors constantly demanded.
The proposal we sought then was to enhance the environment, promoting the concept of "Urban Campus" as a magnet and pole of innovation, knowledge and talent, giving a new use to the parking located in the basements of the square - then underutilized - in a friendly space, in which both students and neighbors, find a new space of enjoyment and connectivity.
The Urban Campus was designed to contribute to the sustainable development of the area, considering in the same project the social, economic, cultural and urban-environmental aspects.

Collaborative by Design: Parks Canada’s New Network of National Urban Parks
A collaborative and partnership based model is a successful approach for a federally-led urban park program. Join Parks Canada and partners to learn more about the new National Urban Parks Program, which represents the next evolution for Parks Canada whose history over 110 years has provided Canadians a system of national parks, national historic sites, and national marine conservation areas. Building on the success of the Rouge National Urban Park, Parks Canada has committed to collaborate with municipalities, provinces, Indigenous partners, conservation organizations and park advocacy groups, among others, to identify opportunities for creating or expanding national urban parks in urban and near-urban settings. This new network of national urban parks will also include areas managed under a range of flexible governance models, including federally administered places, 3rd party administered places, and partnership models. Our network is working together to create new national urban parks that will help protect biodiversity, support climate resilience, connect people to nature, improve mental health and wellness, promote cultural heritage, and increase social inclusion. They will also provide opportunities to support reconciliation with Indigenous populations and build collaborative relationships with Indigenous partners. This interactive session will offer a hybrid presentation and workshop format, to engage and benefit all participants.

Three Rivers, One Maintenance Strategy: Funding Routine Care for Pittsburgh's Riverfronts
Pittsburgh is famous for making steel, for its bridges, and for the rivers they cross, two of which converge into a third at the city's most famous public space. But only a portion of Pittsburgh's riverfronts are publicly owned. Though most of the system is publicly accessible, a mosaic of ownership and investment makes for inconsistent maintenance and a disjointed riverfront experience. In order to address this issue, local nonprofit Riverlife is working to develop a one-of-a-kind funding structure and maintenance strategy to bring added value to the existing system and ensure a world-class experience for all along Pittsburgh's three rivers. Participants in this session will have a chance to dig into the details of this evolving plan. Riverlife's Director of Planning Projects will outline the successes, and the hurdles, that come with a shared maintenance plan for 49 unique property owners across 180 parcels. This innovative approach to public and private land management offers unique opportunities for equitable access and investment across diverse geographies and challenging political landscapes.

Designing playgrounds for young children and their families
Our youngest children (birth to 5 years) are the most frequent users of public playground spaces. Therefore, it is essential that public playgrounds be designed for the unique developmental needs of the youngest children. Moreover, young children are always accompanied by their families when they visit public playgrounds. This means that these spaces must also be exciting, engaging, and comfortable for the whole family. In this session we will discuss research on early childhood development and from the KOMPAN play institute with the youngest children on what works best in playground design. We will also demonstrate which features of public playgrounds are most appealing to families with young children and present planning tips and case studies of playgrounds that are attractive for the youngest playground users.

Urban Park revisited
In our collective imagination an urban park is a public place of free access and usually run by local authorities. Its main objective is recreation although there are additional environmental, social, and economic benefits. Under the current urban context of overpopulation, pollution, climate change and mainly prevailing water scarcity, urban parks face great challenges for their maintenance. Treated wastewater reuse constitutes an attractive tool to relieve water stress at cities. The use of treated wastewater to irrigate urban parks and green spaces is successfully practiced around the world. In Mexico, the utilization of treated wastewater started in 1970s, nowadays 15 % of treated water is destined to irrigate green areas. This document presents a demonstrative project of an urban park built around a decentralized wastewater treatment plant of 3 l/sec, Ecoparque located in a typical slope at the desert city of Tijuana in northern Mexico. It has been running for nearly 30 years, has 2.5 km irrigation lines aiming to cover 10-acre surface, and by now 30% treated water is reused. In the site environmental education, urban agriculture, native plants propagation, compost production and renewable energy activities take place; in doing so, urban resilience, environmental awareness and reduction of food poverty are also addressed.

PLANNING IN EXTREME CLIMATES: ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS IN CITY DESIGN
Multiple factors condition how people move around and use the city. Climate is one of them, and today it has taken on a priority role due to the environmental alterations of climate change. City planners and decision makers must recognize the urgency of designing for the new climate conditions, with a vision of resilience, reduced impacts and attention to social dynamics.
The session explores the experience of three Mexican cities in different regions: Torreon, a desert city in the north, and its mobility plan with a focus on sustainability; Merida, a tropical city in the southeast, and its green infrastructure regulations aimed at protecting native flora and aquifers; and Los Cabos, a coastal city in the northwest, and the urban design of a social housing development, with a focus on flood risk mitigation and water stress.

5 clues from Environmental Psychology that designers of recreational public spaces should know
The growing population living in cities demands a paradigm shift in the design process of public spaces to improve the quality of urban life. While the main object of study of Environmental Psychology is the human-ambience interrelationship, this proposal aims to present 5 key concepts that demonstrate this interaction. The contributions are organized in two sections. The first is related to symbolic concepts which include: (i) appropriation; (ii) place identity; and (iii) place attachment. The second, focuses on practical theories to be applied in the design processes: (iv) perception; and (v) restorative capacity. The main goal is to articulate these assumptions with the architectural realm to guide design logics for the benefit of city dwellers

Urban nature parks for water, climate and biodiversity sensitive metropolitan areas
n recent years, Chile has been experiencing important changes in the use and destination of its urban parks. Cities are transforming and growing, and in the middle of them, there are natural remnants of ecological and social importance. In parallel, two legislative reforms allow the emergence of new parks with natural value around urban wetlands, which have a metropolitan scale scope and use.
The purpose of this session is to discuss the main characteristics, the principal elements and the complexities to be addressed in different management and financing models that are required in urban natural parks that are configured around wetlands and natural remnants. Public-private cooperation is required, but also the active participation of civil society, as well as innovative financing mechanisms to ensure the sustainability of the parks over time. All this in a country with profound geographic differences, where on the one hand, the parks must deal with a permanent drought. While on the other extreme, floods will be recurrent. Chile is preparing to have cities and metropolitan areas sensitive to water, climate and biodiversity.

Las Riberas - A Sustainable Sites Within A Community
Wellness, nature, sustainability and community were the inspiration to create spaces that combine harmony to offer a better quality of life.
Concerned about the environment, nature and our future, Las Riberas developed an urban space focused on sustainability, service, coexistence and technology, resulting in a unique community, vibrant and surrounded by life, ideal for living in peace, family and responsibly.
Las Riberas is a residential community located in Hermosillo Sonora, this space was created to offer an environment that satisfies all recreational, sports and social needs. Nature and sustainability are considered and prioritized for the development of this urban space.
This residential sought to pursue SITES™ (Sustainable Sites Initiative) certification, which is a certification based on the understanding that land is a crucial component of the built environment and can be planned, designed, built and maintained to avoid, mitigate and even reverse negative effects.
Sustainable landscapes create ecologically resilient communities, improving their ability to withstand and recover from floods, droughts, wildfires and other disasters. This certification benefits the environment, landowners, communities, and local and regional economies.
Las Riberas decided to certify under SITES all open areas within the first construction phase of the development.
The main characteristic of Las Riberas is the importance of preserving the endemic nature of the area, creating spaces where people can hang out, exercise, and connect socially in the open air.

Cómo lograr la permanencia de los espacios públicos recreativos
Hace más de 10 años que me dedico al desarrollo de negocios con un enfoque de innovación y con la finalidad de ofrecer propuestas de valor únicas para los diferentes segmentos de mercado. En este ecosistema de innovación, tuve la maravillosa fortuna de coincidir con Parques de México, la única consultora de México y Latinoamérica que ofrece servicios de consultoría especializada para los Grandes Parques y Bosques Urbanos, con el objetivo de crear modelos de gestión que permitan la sostenibilidad y permanencia de estos espacios recreativos.
Actualmente soy Consultora en Parques de México, disfruto mucho el trabajo colaborativo y trabajar todos los días con la visión de tener un impacto positivo para las generaciones de hoy y las de mañana. Tengo una Licenciatura en Mercadotecnia y Negocios Internacionales, un Maestría en Ciencias del Emprendimiento y una Maestría en Dirección Global de Negocios; y al día de hoy, puedo decir con firmeza que los parques y la innovación es lo que más me apasiona. Desarrollar soluciones innovadores para lograr la permanencia y sostenibilidad de los espacios públicos recreativos es mi meta.
Para mí la innovación es el “arte de transformar nuestra creatividad, conocimiento y habilidades en soluciones de valor que resuelvan un problema actual o potencial, logrando un impacto positivo a nivel social, ambiental y económico”. De igual manera, mi definición de un parque urbano es ese “rinconcito de felicidad que no sólo son los pulmones de una ciudad, sino el corazón de una comunidad”.
La innovación en los parques es la combinación perfecta para fomentar la solución de problemas a través de la creatividad e intentando todos los días lograr un mejor mundo a través de los grandes parques y bosques urbanos.
Cada uno de nosotros es capaz de lograr grandes metas; pero todos nosotros, juntos, somos capaces de transformar nuestro mundo.

Amplifying the value of large urban parks and nature connection in Canada
Large urban parks hold space for nature in our cities. They help people to build meaningful connections to nature and to each other, and they give cities a big head start when it comes to mitigating impacts of climate change. Research suggests that spending time in large urban parks, including participating in stewardship programs or other nature-based activities, contributes to nature connectedness. A strong connection to nature has positive impacts on mental health, well-being, and pro-environmental behaviour – creating a positive feedback loop for further involvement in broader and park-focused environmental stewardship.
Through the Cornerstone Parks program, Park People connects and supports park-based NGOs who share a vision of ensuring that nature is within reach for every urban Canadian. Over the next three years, we intend to grow the network through new partnerships across Canada to further support knowledge exchange and shared best practices, in order to increase access to the benefits of urban parks, nature connection and stewardship programs in equity-deserving communities.
Supported by research on nature connection from the 2022 Canadian City Parks report, this session will illustrate the Cornerstone Parks program as an innovative model for improving our appreciation of these spaces and leveraging further investment in them.

Microparks project in Fortaleza-CE, Brazil: Urbanism and Environment towards sustainable urban development
The session aims to present the Micro Parks Project, which uses concepts of nature based solutions to develop urbanized green areas in the city of Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil. It provides safe spaces for children to play, learn, interact with caregivers and with each other, and develop their knowledge of the world surrounding them. The presence of that type of space in low-income neighborhoods, with families who often don't count on reliable spaces to be with their children, can help caregivers fulfill their children's needs. In that sense, the micro parks project helps underprivileged children to have a better cognitive growth while exercising their creativity exploring different textures and ways to use the space for play. It it als a tool to teach early childhood about climate change issues when comparing a natural space such as that with other surroundings that children who live in cities are used to seeing. It also provides better air quality for the young while improving the neighborhood capacity to deal with floods. Positive change in the population's perception of the area is one of the benefits, along with the use of the city's pruning wood, normally sent to the sanitary landfill.

Co-Designing public spaces: experiences from Mérida, Yucatán
Participatory design began in the 70s, aiming to include stakeholders in design processes to ensure better projects. Since then, discourse and concepts of participatory design have changed to include notions of identity, ownership, co-design, social innovation, democracy and empowerment.
Asambleas Ciudadanas has worked in participatory processes since 2011 with communities across Mexico. Our ethos is based on the idea that transforming the city is not only a technical task but rather a political one. Recently we developed a process to co-design public spaces in the city along with authorities of Merida municipality. The co-design process has three different phases: assessment, co-design and reviewing the final project, and within a year of construction, the spaces were completed. This participatory process has been implemented in 20 public spaces and became a flagship programme for its Major.
Our proposal will explore how co-design can challenge institutional processes to make them more democratic, and at the same time how communities demonstrate through a variety of tools such as mapping and surveys their invaluable knowledge in the use of their spaces. The latest, whilst crucial to the project itself, also shows the micropolitical action of people in transforming public spaces.
We will also share the main findings of the processes developed like how relevant is gender perspective to have inclusive and safer spaces for all.

Building local networks through participatory processes: the case of Ciudad Juárez
Within the public discourse around participatory design and its relation to people’s re-appropriation of public space, the work carried out by Fundación Hogares demonstrates that participatory processes in the frame of community-led projects foster capacity building, social capital, and neighbourhood cohesion. This project was recently developed in a partnership between Fundación Hogares and Infonavit, in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, and was implemented within the context of three (social housing) neighbourhoods located in the outskirts of the city.
Aiming to reduce the widespread home abandonment across Mexico, through the implementation of socio-spatial regeneration projects, our session presents the case of “Polígono 5”. It shines a light on the relevance of working together with local stakeholders and involving them in different phases of the project so that they can follow up the actions carried out by the community and assure its long-term maintenance.
Results indicate a strong relationship between community-led projects and increased levels of sense of belonging and participatory behaviour, as well as built trust in local authorities. On the other hand, the evaluation shows reduced perception of abandonment and insecurity indicators. Ultimately, these results prove participatory processes strengthen social cohesion and urban vitality within social housing territories.

Implementing city-wide participatory strategies to reclaim public spaces in the context of Covid-19
Cities across Mexico face major challenges regarding urban development, such as socio-spatial inequality, resource management, as well as economic development. This scenario represents an opportunity for urban projects to reduce inequalities by approaching them from an inclusive and participatory perspective.
This session focuses on the “Parque de la Equidad” project, which is a 16 km long —89 has— linear public space. The objective of the project was to implement a participatory strategy that would inform the design of a new public space that would work as a catalyst for social cohesion for rather socio-economically diverse districts of the city of Cancun. The project was developed in partnership with UN-Habitat, Fundación Hogares y Asambleas Ciudadanas.
The project scale and the Covid-19 pandemic were two challenges to cope with, as it was developed from May to December 2020, before vaccines were available to the population. We needed to ensure both large participation numbers and applying health measures to avoid Covid spread. For this reason, planning and institutional support were key to assure the successful implementation of the participatory process.
In this context, a flexible and dynamic strategy was required, so that it could be adapted to circumstances that were specific to each district in order to build the programme for the “Parque de la Equidad” master plan.

Public Involvement in Maintaining Parks of Delhi: Forging Partnerships with Local Communities
The government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (GNCTD) has more than 18000 parks spread over 8000 hectares in various locations throughout Delhi, which are managed by various agencies like MCD, DDA, PWD, etc. Addressing this multiplicity of agencies, the Delhi Parks and Gardens Society (DPGS) was formed to coordinate the management of parks and gardens.
One of the major schemes of DPGS involves providing financial assistance to Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs) or Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs) for ensuring maintenance and upkeep of neighborhood parks and gardens.
The DPGS scheme leads to increased public participation in management of green spaces whilst providing them with funds for spending as per local knowledge of needs. The funds can be utilized for increasing greenery, engaging gardeners, and spending on tools and equipment.
The expenditure in the scheme has seen a steady growth from 19 million in 2016-17 to 85 million in 2021-22 and is a major chunk of expenditure within the DPGS with plans to target maximum unmaintained parks in the current year.
To aid this process of identifying unmaintained parks a census of all parks is underway revealing that as much as 55% of total parks are unmaintained. In addition to this, urban green spaces are unequally distributed between different settlement typologies creating a new set of challenges for improving access to green spaces for all.

participatory development of an urban park: the social transformation of a neighborhood from public spaces
The paper presents the case of implementing the transformation of a popular housing neighborhood from the 1980s into a park neighborhood in the city of Passo Fundo, Brazil. The demand came to the government from the community. The neighborhood had green areas, but without structure, in addition to having a vast area owned by the State, which was at risk of irregular occupation due to abandonment. In this case, we will present the entire process, from the concession of the area to the municipality, development of the participatory project and execution together with the community. In this project, we sought to incorporate new equipment into the park, such as a school and a health unit, in addition to creating a strategy for each part of the neighborhood to be served by the park within a radius of 300m.

High-quality, Innovative, Resilient, Inclusive - Not buzz words but the outcome for open space
COVID-19 has made us appreciate the role of public open spaces in supporting our health and wellbeing, sense of community, and civic lives more than ever. Areas with poor access to public open space and waterways suffered during COVID-19 lockdowns, and the inequitable impacts on Western Sydney were widely observed.
Despite widespread recognition of the value of public open space to the people of NSW, public open space is all too often treated as a “nice to have”. But not everyone has access to public open space, and the quality of the public open space we do have varies across the state.
Future public open space must be better planned and coordinated by the many Government agencies and local councils involved in land management, to meet the needs of communities as the NSW population grows by almost 3 million people over next 50 years.
In this session you will learn about what the NSW Government Open Space program is doing to ensure that High-quality, Innovative, Resilient, Inclusive are not buzz words, they are the intention, the scope and the outcome being achieved.

Establishing Green Adelaide and becoming a National Park City
Green Adelaide was established in 2020 as one of the biggest changes in the South Australian Government's reform of natural resources management across the state. With a direction to focus on the management of the urban landscape, hear about Green Adelaide's achievements over the past two years in response to challenges such as a changing climate, population growth and development, and the threats of habitat loss and invasive species. This has seen a focus on urban greening, rewilding, and community engagement to increase connection to nature, in partnership with local councils, non-government organisations and others.
Green Adelaide has also joined an ambitious international movement to improve the health and liveability of cities which has seen Adelaide become the second National Park City in the world after London. This brings additional opportunities to focus on relationships between people and nature, acknowledge and address the challenges we face, and assist other cities in their similar journeys. Green Adelaide will share the challenges and opportunities arising from this historic achievement.

BiodivScore
In Paris, 95% of projects are not subject to environmental assessment, so that the consideration of biodiversity in projects is not assessed, nor is the impact that these projects have on living organisms.
In accordance with Action 2 of its Biodiversity Plan, the City of Paris aims to correct this pitfall by integrating biodiversity into all stages of construction, development and rehabilitation projects.
A tool for evaluating practices
Inspired by the avoid-reduce-compensate sequence, the BiodivScore is a tool to assess the biodiversity performance of projects and to help them move towards the least impact in terms of biodiversity. This tool therefore encourages the avoidance of impacts on biodiversity, or, failing that, their reduction and, as a last resort, the compensation of residual impacts.
Four assessment axes are developed to cover the entire timeframe of the project:
o Evaluation of the ecological potential to be calculated before and after in order to compare the trend between the initial and projected situations;
o Evaluation of the programming and construction choices to assess the consideration given to biodiversity by the project owner and the contractor;
o Assessment of the avoidance and reduction of the impacts of the works during the construction phase;
o Assessment of the planned management.

"Sparrow Neighborhood"
On a national scale, common biodiversity is threatened, while species that have been the object of special protection are less affected.
The evidence is clear: targeted protection policies can work.
To face the disappearance of the Parisian sparrows (-73% since years 2000), the City of Paris inaugurates a tailor-made system: "Quartiers Moineaux": "Sparrow Neighborhood".
Developed in partnership with the Ligue pour la Protection des Oiseaux (LPO), the "Sparrow Neighborhood" participative scheme aims to mobilize residents, shopkeepers and public establishments in a given neighborhood to strengthen local sparrow colonies. In practice, this takes the form of :
Provision of sparrow nesting boxes with installation advice and distribution of seeds whose sowing will bring vegetation that is a source of food,
Adapted maintenance of the green spaces of the sector concerned, such as the planting of shrubs and flowering plants / seeds useful to sparrows. 3 types of classical actions to please sparrows:
Allow some bushes to grow taller,
Planting plants with seeds for food,
Leave areas as 'natural grassland'.
Long-term animation of a community of ambassadors who will be able to participate in a participatory science protocol developed by the LPO to provide information on the actual occupation of the nesting boxes and the City will offer information throughout the year on the subject to better understand and better protect.

Rehabilitacion del Parque Miguel Hidalgo, Cuerpo Oriente
Los parques urbanos son considerados espacios multifuncionales que cumplen con distintos objetivos dentro de las ciudades: recreativos, estéticos, ambientales y hasta educativos, pero que mantienen como elemento central a sus usuarios. Es el parque el pulmón de la ciudad, gracias a sus áreas verdes, pero es también, y sobre todo, el lugar donde confluimos todos, donde se generan importantes dinámicas de convivencia social y de recreación compartida.
El Parque Miguel Hidalgo, en León, Guanajuato, México, se había visto cada vez más abandonado, dadas sus características estructurales poco atractivas, de manera que nuestro trabajo de recuperación consistió en restaurar su vocación primaria al servicio de las personas.
La obra incluyó áreas de recreación activa y pasiva, espacios donde se pueda pasar tiempo, ya sea sentado o caminando, una estrategia de intervención en el área de paisajismo, y un espacio para espectáculos al aire libre. El objetivo es reconvertirlo en un punto de reunión.

The first Land Management Strategy for planning and managing Victoria’s park estate.
The Land Management Strategy sets the long-term directions and priorities for the protection, management and use of the terrestrial, coastal and marine parks and reserves managed by Parks Victoria, over 4 million hectares covering 18% of the state of Victoria. It underpins planning and management for parks from highly protected natural areas to urban parks, for partners, stakeholders and community. This session will explore how the Land Management Strategy applies consistent, integrated principles, outcomes and reporting indicators at the state-wide park estate and individual park scales. We will use examples of visitor experience planning for urban parks that respond to the complex social, cultural and environmental challenges and pressures our parks face. As metropolitan Melbourne and regional centres grow, more people are seeking the open space and recreational opportunities that urban parks provide. The Land Management Strategy principles include that all parks will be managed according to their specified purpose and function, to protect environmental, cultural and social values. The visitor experience will be guided by protection of natural and cultural values. The community will be encouraged to engage with, and develop, social and cultural connections and understand, be active in, and appreciate parks. The session will provide details of how the recreation activities, events, tourism, education and interpretation and volunteering programs utilise the Land Management Strategy for direction and implementation reporting.

21st century cities face an array of significant new challenges – population grown, rapid urbanization, increasing inequity, growing violence, climate change, sea level rise, and the extinction crisis. Urban parks are both significantly impacted by these new challenges and offer potential solutions for addressing them. In this session, speakers from five continents around the world will identify key emerging trends in urban parks, and together postulate what urban parks will look like and what new roles they will play in the life of cities in 2050. Speakers will focus on the social, environmental, and economic triple bottom line of parks.

Hacia la construcción esencial del territorio sustentable en Colima, México
Las áreas urbanas contemporáneas del occidente de México y América Latina se expanden dispersamente, impactando negativamente en la ocupación de suelo con vocación agropecuario. Esa difusión territorial favorece el debilitamiento de las relaciones sociales, pérdida de confianza vecinal e inseguridad patrimonial.
La construcción y mantenimiento territorial de urbanizaciones, servicios urbanos y edificaciones de manera atomizada, lacera el paisaje urbano, precipita el costo de operarlos, dejando un déficit financiero para potenciar actividades de prioridad social, económico y ambiental.
Lo ocurrido es producto del antivalor del crecimiento económico consumista individualizado, hedonista y fugaz sin inspiración en el desarrollo endógeno solidario y participativo, ni proclive a la felicidad genuina. Esto tiene repercusión degradante en muchos ámbitos, incluyendo el urbano, arquitectónico y componentes de construcción.
Es urgente promover en la academia la particiación genuina y la integración social, la economía endógena, la protección de los ecosistemas regionales, integrados a procesos resilientes, innovadores y de alta calidad.
El caso del territorio colimense mexicano, como muchos en América Latina, contribuyen con gases de efecto invernadero. Esto tiene su origen principal en la pérdida de valores de fraternidad y subsidiariedad, la generación eléctrica mediante el combustóleo, el uso cotidiano de productos de rápido desecho, las emisiones de motores de combustión de vehículos de uso individualizado, el modelo dominante de expansión urbana con exigua vegetación y el exceso de excretas de ganado rumiante.
En esta disertación se hacen propuestas de solución resolutiva a los problemas mencionados.

A prescription worth filling…naturally!
Social prescribing is becoming increasingly of interest in supporting nature based health and wellbeing outcomes for our communities. With people discovering how important nature has been during the pandemic it is a perfect time for these conversations.
Parks Victoria supports social prescribing and is successfully implementing it across the park network, and no more successfully than in the regional city of Ballarat in Victoria, Austraila.
Come on a community’s journey to see the great health and wellbeing outcomes that can be achieved through co-design, engaging across the community health sector, social prescribing, some passionate staff and great plans!
When the Friends of Canadian Corridor successfully campaigned and petitioned government to protect land, destined for housing development, as a park, they knew it was for something special. What is now Woowookarung Regional Park, the Wadawurrung First Nation Peoples’ name for ‘place of plenty’, is an important expression of community participation, organisation and strength.
One of the first projects at Woowookarung to develop a trail became a compassionate journey to not just build a trail, but to nurture life changing connections while being in nature. It has become the site of Australia’s first Dementia friendly forest and sensory trail and Parks Victoria’s first park to support ‘Green Scripts’.

Developing the plan requires a commitment to extensive consultation. Engaging with visitors, stakeholders and workforce provides an opportunity to learn about and strategically address key issues for people with disability, carers and our workforce as well as consider improvements. New knowledge gained from community is partnered with the work already achieved to inform the strategies and actions we commit to in the publicly available plan. Our most recent Disability Action Plan 2022-2026 identified nine priority areas:
• Connection & Inclusion
• Changing attitudes
• Universal Design
• Accessible Information and Communication
• Community Programs and partnerships
• Accessible tourism. Recreation, education and interpretation services

Presentación del libro "El Parque Urbano: entre Naturaleza y Democracia"
El parque urbano cobija una inmensa variedad de significados que provienen, por un lado, de la longeva y cambiante idea de naturaleza, albergada en las nociones de paraíso, campo en la ciudad y paisaje identitario; y, por el otro, de la más moderna idea de democracia, albergada en la noción de proveer salud, belleza, cultura y espacio recreativo, a un entorno urbano en plena transformación de ciudad barroca a ciudad decimonónica industrializada, símbolo de progreso y civilización.
Entre opiniones de escritores, profesionales del diseño, administradores de parques y usuarios, se concretan 32 lugares comunes de significado actual, que promueven o inhiben el uso y el éxito de los parques. El parque urbano es un detonador de bondades inimaginables y un espacio de la ciudad que permite crear comunidad, pero cuya fragilidad implica un gran cuidado por parte de los actores involucrados en su ubicación, diseño, construcción, mantenimiento, administración y uso. Más allá de ser un objeto físico-espacial, el parque urbano es un sujeto en el acontecer de la vida de individuos, familias y localidades, que permite la inclusión social, la resiliencia ambiental y la posibilidad de crear experiencias que construyen una historia cultural reveladora y una memoria colectiva perdurable.

Política Nacional de Parques Urbanos, más y mejores parques para Chile
En Chile, nuestras ciudades se enfrentan a una serie de desafíos como consecuencia del aumento de la población urbana y de la segregación socio-espacial que dicho aumento ha llevado asociado. Problemas como la contaminación ambiental, los efectos del cambio climático y la vulnerabilidad ante el riesgo de desastres, constituyen una amenaza para la salud y calidad de vida de sus habitantes. El crecimiento urbano y la densificación generan una creciente demanda por más y mejores parques urbanos, al tiempo que los suelos disponibles para materializarlos, son cada vez más escasos. Al desafío de la disponibilidad de suelo, se suma el de la equidad en la distribución de los parques y áreas verdes existentes.
Dotar a Chile de una Política Nacional de Parques Urbanos (PNPU) representa una oportunidad única para proteger y fortalecer el rol vital que cumplen los parques urbanos en la sustentabilidad y la resiliencia de nuestras ciudades, en el bienestar y la calidad de vida de sus habitantes, y en el desarrollo futuro del país.
La PNPU es el resultado de un arduo trabajo multisectorial liderado por el Ministerio de Vivienda y Urbanismo (MINVU) con distintos organismos públicos, del sector privado, la academia y la sociedad civil. Además, se desarrolló con un amplio despliegue territorial en las 16 regiones administrativas del país y con procesos de participación ciudadana.

This ‘urban/peri-urban’ conservation area of 660 hectares is surrounded by residential and rural properties and links into a broader, but fragmented, landscape of natural areas.
Parks Victoria’s role has been pivotal in a highly acclaimed programme that has brought one of Australia’s most critically endangered birds, the helmeted honeyeater, back from the brink of extinction only a decade ago.
The initiative demonstrates the importance of having a shared vision/objective, working in collaboration with partners across various land tenures, and the strength and effectiveness of a sophisticated, comprehensive, integrated and coordinated approach.
This approach integrates functions such as:
• partnerships with key volunteer groups, research institutions, local government, water authorities, Zoos Victoria and government departments to achieve environmental outcomes on public and private land;
• coordinated weed management and pest animal control;
• habitat restoration, where Parks Victoria has a major partnership role with other government agencies and civil society environmental groups such as the Friends of the helmeted honeyeater; and
• floodplain hydrology restoration, where Parks Victoria plays a facilitative and supportive role to the actions and activities of the major project deliverers.
The critical roles of advocacy, landowner and community engagement, school and citizen science programs, and building social capital are led by the highly regarded and very active environmental group, the Friends of the Helmeted Honeyeater.

Restauración Bioambiental y paisajística para la recreación y protección ambiental de los humedales de Soacha
Los humedales de Soacha son el ecosistema municipal que evitan las inundaciones y mantienen el equilibrio hídrico de la región. Pero las condiciones socioeconómicas del municipio generadas por el desplazamiento armado o económico, ha provocado unos conglomerados sociales que por el desorden urbanísticos del territorio y la falta de oportunidades se han tomado tierras aledañas a estos ecosistemas, desencadenando su deterioro ambiental y reduciendo las capacidades de recreación que podrían aportar.
El presente proyecto busca la restauración bioambiental , mediante el diseño de una infraestructura ambiental - paisajística restaurativa, que genere como valor agregado corredores eco recreativos, que permitan la apropiación de estas reservas mediante la recreación y la actividad física, implementando acciones pedagógicas.

Electro Eco tarpunchik (Sowing): Technological proposal for agriculture automated urban that conquers the heights
Annually, food prices have risen an average of 2.6% for the last 20 years. The food shortage of food is related to political problems, which leads to violence as an end product. According to the FAO, in 2008 saw record rises in food prices and ended in fights and brawls in 48 countries. This is because a system doomed to failure continues in times of climate change.
Faced with this, vertical farming appears as an alternative solution, which consists of superimposed layers and is performed on ascending structures such as buildings and platforms. There, the environmental variables are controlled for the crops. Additionally, and framing the Peruvian reality, there are methods that lower investment costs
for vertical farming such as Electro eco sowing, automated urban farming.
This project is an agricultural system that optimizes the use of water since it allows only the amount of water necessary for each food product on its substrate aided by electronic circuits. The excess water will be recirculated to return to the system (automation). It also uses solid waste as inputs. It is small in size, easy to to install, to operate anywhere and gives a friendly and reassuring face to the buildings of an increasingly exhausting and stressful. Human supervision will only be done on rare occasions and by the creator of the draft.
Between 70% and 90% water saving was obtained (the variation depends on the species) with food plants and fast growth. The maximum expense of $120 to implement everything.
It is concluded that this project is eco-efficient, low cost, guaranteeing food security and it would be an income
extra for those who stay in their home.

Reimagining Toronto Parks & Trails Wayfinding
This session will discuss the development, design, pilot implementation, and evaluation of a strategy to enhance and unify wayfinding across the city’s 1,600+ parklands and 600 km of trails. The work was developed over two phases. The strategy forms part of Toronto’s post COVID-19 response to increase access to public and private greenspace, providing residents with accessible and reliable access to outdoor and help make the city’s urban wilderness more inclusive.
Phase One, established system framework: identifying gaps and challenges through analysis and ongoing engagement with stakeholders and the general public, setting wayfinding principles, informing content needs, establishing general style and design guidelines.
Phase Two, included planning, design and implementation of a wayfinding pilot installed along the Lower Don Valley Trail and in Riverdale Park.
Post pilot-implementation user surveys informed value engineering and product refinements to establish a system that is durable, flexible and viable in the long term. A comprehensive set of guidelines (five volumes) describe system strategy, product placement, construction details and graphic specification, as well as a governance structure to deliver a decades-long implementation.

Gamification of playground design: An exercise of codesign using collaborative board games
Since the Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989, the importance of the participation of children and adolescents in the city began to be highlighted, promoting the recognition of children as subjects with rights and an opinion, freedom of expression and their own voice. As Ian Smith says "Children are part of our cities. If our cities aren't designed for children, then they're not meant for citizens. If they're not meant for citizens, they're not cities." Therefore, we are challenged to find ways to involve children in the process of designing urban playgrounds. How can we do that? What if we turn the design process into a game itself to do it? What if we merge game elements with playgrounds design? This workshop aims to explore the use of collaborative board games as a design tool in which urban design experts and non-experts can participate. Be part of an open playground co-design process using game mechanics.

Funding public policies with private sources – experiences from Brazilian parks
In a moment of budgetary restrictions, is not uncommon for governments to freeze or cut resources for recreation and public spaces maintenance. As a fundamental source of welfare and provider of environmental services, urban parks need to find new sources for funding.
This scenario imposes a challenge for policy makers: how to continuously delivery effective public services in a context when budget is scarce?
Searching for financially sustainable policies, many governments across Brazil are designing arrangements with the private sector for partnerships intended to support public management of free entrance public parks.
These policies require from the private partner to run operational services and managing facilities, commercial or not, as well as to implement policies designed by public officers.
While a great opportunity to facilitate investments that hardly would be made exclusively with public resources, there are also challenges to properly manage private interests and assure even more diverse and vibrant parks.
This scenario that is intended to be shared. From the theoretical framework behind these partnerships with cases from cities such as São Paulo, Porto Alegre and Recife, to the outcomes and required improvements of this policy.

Street-Park Networks for the Healthy City
Streets cover around 80% of the total public space in cities. How can we enhance the function of such valuable space? What if they achieve more than just connecting us between our destinations?
The city of San Pedro Garza García is going through one of its most important transformations in its history. Following three historical urbanization events, and the deep renovation of 5 large parks, there is a new layer being unfolded across three districts that promise a city with an unprecedented network of urban parks.
Cities are the product of the constant adaptation of the natural environment and human survival depends on the correct interconnections between air, earth, water, life and culture. The evolution of cities has a straight connection between the way humans transport themselves to access everyday needs and the shape of the paths that connect and provide a safe and comfortable space to move we now call streets.
At IMPLANG, we’re working on the transformation of three districts within San Pedro, and this talk will take us through the history of the urbanization of the municipality, the projects in place to improve such places, and the sustainability and health benefits such intervention aims to achieve.

Resilient Parks and Communities
This session aims to inspire: it will show how public parks can contribute to more resilient and healthy neighborhoods and communities. We will present the "Our Resilient Neighborhood" initiative, which implements measures to rehabilitate the public park “Parque Hundido Pedro Sánchez” in the city of San José del Cabo, Baja California Sur. The initiative works closely with the community in order to adjust the park to their needs. At the same time, the initiative implements nature-based solutions and educational measures that can give answers to the environmental challenges in San José del Cabo. We will take participants on a virtual walk in the park and show simple strategies to create “urban oasis” and spaces of cohabitation, recreation and education, which can be replicated in urban parks, schools and homes. The session will be conducted in a hybrid way: videos of the initiative will be shown and a panel will be organized to share lessons learned and recommendations for carrying out these initiatives.

BiodivScore
In Paris, 95% of projects are not subject to environmental assessment, so that the consideration of biodiversity in projects is not assessed, nor is the impact that these projects have on living organisms. In accordance with Action 2 of its Biodiversity Plan, the City of Paris aims to correct this pitfall by integrating biodiversity into all stages of construction, development and rehabilitation projects. A tool for evaluating practices Inspired by the avoid-reduce-compensate sequence, the BiodivScore is a tool to assess the biodiversity performance of projects and to help them move towards the least impact in terms of biodiversity. This tool therefore encourages the avoidance of impacts on biodiversity, or, failing that, their reduction and, as a last resort, the compensation of residual impacts. Four assessment axes are developed to cover the entire timeframe of the project: o Evaluation of the ecological potential to be calculated before and after in order to compare the trend between the initial and projected situations; o Evaluation of the programming and construction choices to assess the consideration given to biodiversity by the project owner and the contractor; o Assessment of the avoidance and reduction of the impacts of the works during the construction phase; o Assessment of the planned management.

National Urban Parks Policy, More and Better Parks for Chile
In Chile, our cities are facing a series of challenges as a result of the increase in the urban population and the socio-spatial segregation that this increase has been associated with. Problems such as environmental pollution, the effects of climate change and vulnerability to disaster risk, constitute a threat to the health and quality of life of its inhabitants. Urban growth and densification generate a growing demand for more and better urban parks, while the land available to materialize them is increasingly scarce. Added to the challenge of land availability is that of equity in the distribution of existing parks and green areas. Providing Chile with a National Policy for Urban Parks (PNPU) represents a unique opportunity to protect and strengthen the vital role that urban parks play in the sustainability and resilience of our cities, in the well-being and quality of life of its inhabitants. , and in the future development of the country. The PNPU is the result of hard multisectoral work led by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development (MINVU) with different public agencies, the private sector, academia and civil society. In addition, it was developed with a wide territorial deployment in the 16 administrative regions of the country and with citizen participation processes.

In our collective imagination an urban park is a public place of free access and usually run by local authorities. Its main objective is recreation although there are additional environmental, social, and economic benefits. Under the current urban context of overpopulation, pollution, climate change and mainly prevailing water scarcity, urban parks face great challenges for their maintenance.

Changing the Narrative Through Park Management: A New Public Space with Consensus, Participation and Urban Transformation
An abandoned park with a low-security perception can become a family destination and women gathering place. The indicators measured in Parque Cuscatlán in San Salvador show that we can recover areas that community thought was lost. The good news is that this exercise can be replicated, and with the case of Parque Cuscatlán and the multiple measurements that have been made in this space, very positive results can be anticipated. Public-private partnerships can achieve this goal if they are adequately supported with the help of legal instruments such as agreements and other tools such as effective communication and the search for consensus.
From Buenos Aires, The Elefante Blanco Public Park is in the center of Barrio 15 (called the Hidden City), a neighborhood that has been neglected and built by its inhabitants. The park, as well as a new government headquarters, are located where a building from the 1930s used to stand, abandoned since the 1950s. The design and execution of an unprecedented work in the city was given way, which incorporated 12,000 m² of public green space, where the needs of the affected population were prioritized, generating consensus and promoting a new physical and symbolic appropriation of the built environment.
A park's proper management can change the narrative and meaning of a space.

Nature-Based Solutions to Promote and Improve Health, Inclusion and Well-being
The prescription of activities in nature has physiological, psychological and behavioral benefits for human beings. Forest bathing is a practice that originated in Japan and is spreading widely throughout the world. As a well-being practice based on nature, it is structured in a sequence of activities aimed at giving people a sensory and emotional experience, awakening sensations, moments and pleasant thoughts that contribute to improving the natural ability to adapt to change in a more natural way. positive and healthy.
Nature-based solutions are part of the strategies to meet the challenges we are facing globally. Climate change, loss of biodiversity, urbanization, deterioration of physical and mental health are problems on which governments, public and private institutions and citizens are taking action.
There are multiple ways to carry out social innovation based on nature and although it is an innovative and little-known topic, those who are working on it are having great benefits for humanity and for the planet.

Game Changer: How Small Parks can Leverage BIG Influence
Stories shape our lives. Even in parks management – the story we tell is one of the most powerful communication tools we have at our disposal in order to influence, inspire and motivate.
Management software, task schedulers and online reporting systems are now common and useful tools for the modern manager. But documenting the journey or aspirations of a park in a written “story” is increasingly rare.
Politicians and key policy makers are the people that can unlock the best staffing, funding and resources for our parks. Like most of us, they are often driven and moved to make decisions; not through flat facts and figures - but through meaningful and engaging stories.
In this hybrid talk and workshop event, Carl will explore the power of telling a good story and how this can help to get the things you need to deliver better funded and managed parks.
This is presented through the concept of the Green Flag Award - which for 25 years has provided a successful framework for storytelling through park-specific management plans.
Attendees will view a selection of example management plans whilst identifying and discussing the key audiences, themes and messages of their own park story. This exercise will help visualise how showing the right people ‘under the bonnet’ of the parks machine can help achieve your goals to deliver better parks.
About the Green Flag Award
The Green Flag Award is a non-profit international accreditation program that recognises and rewards well managed parks and green spaces. Originating in 1996 - today the Green Flag Award proudly flies above more than 2,000 places in 17 countries around the world.

Reconciliation and Public Parks
La réconciliation, une préoccupation nationale, a été intégrée au cadre stratégique du Plan directeur du parc Jean-Drapeau. Nous y présenterons les stratégies et les démarches effectuées pour assurer sa mise en oeuvre à partir d'actions concrètes. Les États et les municipalités ont aujourd’hui la responsabilité de mettre en oeuvre les principes nationaux et internationaux en matière de réconciliation. Le parc Jean-Drapeau, plus grand et ancien parc de Montréal, qui porte en lui l’héritage autochtone, en a fait une priorité et une orientation stratégique. La transformation annoncée dans son plan directeur fera du parc un lieu plus accessible, diversifié, vert et public. L’abondance d’expériences, de patrimoines, d’espaces et de contact avec les gens, le paysage et la nature répondra aux besoins et aspirations des citoyens de même qu’aux enjeux des parcs urbains. L’inclusion, comme principe directeur, guide notre manière de penser, d’aborder et d’aménager le parc. C’est dans ce contexte que nous avons développé notre engagement envers la vérité et la réconciliation. La démarche effectuée depuis 2019, l’élaboration d’un plan d’action et les principales actions mise en œuvre en 2021 seront présentées. Par cela, nous espérons inciter d’autres gestionnaires de parcs à s’investir envers les peuples autochtones et la valorisation de leur présence historique et de leurs pratiques culturelles, tout en ouvrant la discussion sur d’autre initiatives à privilégier pour développer ce nouveau champ d’expertise en architecture de paysage et en gouvernance de parc public.

Street-Park Networks for the Healthy City: Reimagining Parks & Trails
This session will discuss the development, design, pilot implementation, and evaluation of a strategy to enhance and unify wayfinding across the city’s 1,600+ parklands and 600 km of trails. The work was developed over two phases. The strategy forms part of Toronto’s post COVID-19 response to increase access to public and private greenspace, providing residents with accessible and reliable access to outdoor and help make the city’s urban wilderness more inclusive.
We will also discuss The case of the city of San Pedro Garza García is going through one of its most important transformations in its history. Following three historical urbanization events, and the deep renovation of 5 large parks, there is a new layer being unfolded across three districts that promise a city with an unprecedented network of urban parks. Cities are the product of the constant adaptation of the natural environment and human survival depends on the correct interconnections between air, earth, water, life, and culture.

Urban Life: The Mindful Way
Rather than covet a once-in-awhile retreat into seclusion and solitude, mindful urban living is to learn a skilful way of life right here and now, in the city. By recognising the many opportunities our urban landscape offers for individual and collective development, mindful urban living helps us to dwell in stillness and calmness amidst the day-to-day noises and chaos of the city.
We practice mindfulness to understand mindfulness, and explore a more thoughtful and intentional way of life. This session invites contemplation and reflection on how members of an urban community co-exist differently when each person practices mindful awareness of themselves and their relationship with the external environment they inhabit.

Collaborative By Design: Parks Canada’s New Network of National Urban Parks
A collaborative and partnership based model is a successful approach for a federally-led urban park program. Join Parks Canada and partners to learn more about the new National Urban Parks Program, which represents the next evolution for Parks Canada whose history over 110 years has provided Canadians a system of national parks, national historic sites, and national marine conservation areas. Building on the success of the Rouge National Urban Park, Parks Canada has committed to collaborate with municipalities, provinces, Indigenous partners, conservation organizations and park advocacy groups, among others, to identify opportunities for creating or expanding national urban parks in urban and near-urban settings. This new network of national urban parks will also include areas managed under a range of flexible governance models, including federally administered places, 3rd party administered places, and partnership models. Our network is working together to create new national urban parks that will help protect biodiversity, support climate resilience, connect people to nature, improve mental health and wellness, promote cultural heritage, and increase social inclusion. They will also provide opportunities to support reconciliation with Indigenous populations and build collaborative relationships with Indigenous partners. This interactive session will offer a hybrid presentation and workshop format, to engage and benefit all participants.

Central Park in Distritotec: spaces for Meeting
Once the old Technological Stadium (now as the Borrego Stadium) was relocated, the Tecnologico de Monterrey decided to reconvert that space into a large Central Park, open, green and with the possibility of carrying out multiple outdoor activities throughout 3 hectares that today are shared with all the people who wish to visit it.
The Central Park is a key piece to rethink the way of living with the environment that embraces the Monterrey Campus. Through this talk, the process that made this dream come true will be shared.

Manage the Municipal Green Infrastructure; a commitment to Public Health and Biodiversity
From the perspective of the conservative management of the municipal green heritage, a change in approach has been promoted with respect to the traditional green model, which is conceived as a set of scattered parks and gardens, to adopt another that conceives them as a network of spaces natural resources interconnected in such a way that they constitute a true green infrastructure.
Taking as a reference the evolution developed in Zaragoza (Spain); Zaragoza's green infrastructure includes urban and peri-urban green spaces, as well as those of the natural area of a territorial nature. Its management integrates more aspects than those that have traditionally been taken into account, but it is approached from a more holistic and comprehensive perspective. Logically, it was necessary to continue with the traditional tasks of pruning, mowing, cleaning, irrigation, etc., but their planning and management had to be integrated into a new, more global, more sustainable, healthier approach, more "thinking about the people" who use them. .
The general objective of the new model is to renaturalize and connect the city with its territory, contributing to the fulfillment of climate action objectives and the promotion of biodiversity, promoting urban greening by increasing green areas rich in biodiversity, connected and of low cost of maintenance due to its high naturalness and adaptation to the environment compared to the traditional model of more intensive gardening, as well as improving the well-being and health of citizens, promoting simultaneous management of green and blue spaces, facing the fragmentation of the territory in favor of biodiversity and designing an urban green metabolism project.

Yoga Session: The Big Sit x World Urban Parks
The Big Sit was born out of a premise to bring people together to practice mindfulness meditation in the city. Organized by Mindful Moments in collaboration with the Conscious Cities Index research project, and initiated by a group of volunteers, the first Big Sit took place on Mindfulness Day on 12 September 2020 at Urban Park, Guoco Tower in the CBD of Singapore. The Big Sit has since taken place regularly at various places including Urban Park and Gardens By The Bay in Singapore, as well as London, with the aim of driving purposeful use of urban spaces in the city to improve the mental health and wellbeing of citizens, as well as collectively build a healthier and more conscious society. We envision that The Big Sit will inspire more people to make intentional use of spaces in their cities to practice mindfulness and be able to eventually extend these skills to their personal and professional lives.
• Participants are encouraged to arrive 10 minutes earlier to set up their practice space.
• Participants are encouraged to dress in comfortable clothing and shoes, and bring along their own yoga mat / large towel to sit on, as well as drinking water.
This activity has additional cost, will be in English and has limited availability.
