  • Gender aspects in planning urban green spaces

    For us humans, gender largely determines how we use public space and to what extent we appropriate it. Yet it is a lagging issue in design. Public spaces are supposed to connect us, but we see a clear divide from our early years, which is really only based on assumptions rather than needs.

  • Empowering Youth, Revitalizing Alba Iulia: A City’s Mission Against Depopulation

    Alba Iulia, Romania’s “spiritual capital,” faces a pressing issue that impacts its future. With each year, more young adults are drawn to larger urban centers or international destinations, leaving Alba Iulia’s streets quieter, schools smaller, and local businesses missing vital energy. However, this resilient city is not giving in to the challenges of depopulation and urban shrinkage. Instead, it’s tackling them head-on through bold initiatives designed to make Alba Iulia an attractive home for young people once again.
