Everywhere, there is hidden potential.
Place as a platform
authentic placemaking
embracing local culture and context
empowering community
activating and re-energizing places
We created this forum on place to bring together voices on sustainable, local, people-centred solutions to form a conversation that reaches across the full value spectrum. We hope to empower others who will join the journey, creating positive change in their own communities.
