Description
Summary:Abstract: In August 2018 the seventh edition of the Urban Activation Workshop (TAU, by its initials in Spanish) was held. Namely, the Workshop proposes a space for experimentation, art and discussion on how to inhabit our public spaces, from a perspective of urban activation by citizens. This year, the theme “City and Gender, from a Feminist Perspective” was presented as a specific theme; we worked on the thematic line of “Integration of Urban Borders” specifically in the southern limit of the Ciudad Universitaria (University City) Rodrigo Facio. The workshop counted with the participation of six international facilitators and seven nationals that favored the realization of different proposals focused on the activation of space through reflection and collective construction of participatory processes for self-management of public space in all its dimensions.Keywords: urban activation; public space; participation; participative action; city and gender.
