Open Streets, Open Communities: Reclaiming Streets for People
hosted by Jiya benni
In the mobilizer session “Open Streets, Open Communities: Reclaiming Streets for People” hosted by 880 Cities, explore how the shift toward pedestrian and cyclist oriented streets space can contribute to the improved livelihood of cities and the wellbeing of individuals. Together with Jiya, this session hears from practitioners about their experiences with such projects – their effects on active living and mobility, and the challenges that come with implementation and community engagement.
