Points of Consensus:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cultural diversity is a good thing that brings certain benefits to cities\u2014among them greater social and economic vitality and creativity\u2014if its power can be harnessed and \u201chybridity\u201d encouraged.\u00a0 Diversity produces new ways of thinking, being, and doing that better equip human populations to deal with changing circumstances and conditions. \u00a0However, harnessing diversity\u2019s advantages requires improved intercultural literacy or competency; i.e., a more nuanced understanding of the nature, sources, and consequences of cultural difference. \u00a0Participants were keen to frame the issue of diversity as an opportunity or challenge rather than as a threat, nuisance, or problem.<\/li>\n<li>The intercultural city is co-created or co-produced.\u00a0 There can be no substitute for working with local communities in generating \u201cplace.\u201d Planners must discover what communities need rather than assert what they <em>think<\/em> they need. \u00a0The intercultural city is fluid and \u201calways on the move.\u201d\u00a0 Thus, particular ideologies of planning and design can\u2019t be imposed top-down. Planners must trade on their powers of empathetic understanding and be good listeners.\u00a0 Indeed, listening was widely embraced as the essential key to good place-making.\u00a0 To the extent that \u00a0citizens don\u2019t communicate in the language of professional planners we need creative ways to solicit the stories and memories that can inform good planning and design (e.g., asking adults and children to <em>visually<\/em> represent, in paintings, sketches, and models, their image of the \u201cgood city\u201d). \u00a0Good planners function as facilitators, mediators, and conflict resolvers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"attachment_1475\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.interculturalurbanism.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/SeminarRoom7.600.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1475\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1475\" title=\"SeminarRoom7.600\" src=\"http:\/\/www.interculturalurbanism.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/SeminarRoom7.600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.interculturalurbanism.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/SeminarRoom7.600.jpg 640w, http:\/\/www.interculturalurbanism.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/SeminarRoom7.600-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1475\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Palazzo Badoer Seminar Room (D.

These shared values are found\u2014to invoke a wonderful descriptive phrase from participating architect <a href=\"http:\/\/st-ar.nl\/about\/beatriz-ramo\/\">Beatriz Ramo<\/a>\u00a0found in the project&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fontyshogeschoolvoordekunsten.nl\/Libraries\/AAS_tekstdocumenten\/Melitopol_voor_op_de_site4.sflb.ashx\">final report<\/a>\u2014in the \u201cmagnificent rituals of the simple\u201d (page 13). \u00a0These rituals include <em>celebration<\/em> (apropos for Melitopol given the number and variety of feast days celebrated by the city\u2019s residents), <em>love<\/em> (given that the city is known for the large number of wedding shops to be found on its streets), and <em>sport<\/em> (given that sport is one phenomenon that brings diversities together world-wide).<\/p>\n<p>The park redesign consequently involves some distinctive physical features. \u00a0A circular central area anchors the plan. This space can host dances, markets, concerts, festivals, and summer cinema. The central circle is surrounded by a blue bench that can be shared by up to 1000 people. There\u2019s a \u201cWedding Lane\u201d that extends from the park\u2019s eastern edge to the center, with landscaping prominence given to white-colored flowering plants. \u00a0&#8220;Sport Lane&#8221; starts at the western entrance and also extends to the center circle. It collects all of the existing sport installations of the park. \u00a0The distinctiveness of the Melitopol locality is signaled in some other physical ways. \u00a0Cherry trees and beehives are proposed to reflect the city\u2019s civic identity as a famous producer of \u00a0cherries, other fruits and vegetables, and honey. \u00a0In Stadslab&#8217;s final report Marc Glaudemans nicely captures (page 4) the rationale at work:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>We have no na\u00efve belief in the power of architecture to fundamentally affect people\u2019s values or behavior, but if the basic conditions are there, the architecture of the park can reinforce such behavior and provide an immensely richer environment for being and living together in the city.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"attachment_1478\" style=\"width: 770px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/st-ar.nl\/intercultural-park-design-stadslab-masterclass-melitopol-2010\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1478\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1478 \" title=\"ParkPlans\" src=\"http:\/\/www.interculturalurbanism.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/ParkPlans.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"760\" height=\"380\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.interculturalurbanism.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/ParkPlans.jpg 760w, http:\/\/www.interculturalurbanism.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/ParkPlans-300x150.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1478\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Melitopol Park Plans (Current on Left; Proposed on Right)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>In discussing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.asf-uk.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/LP_UK_09_SOP.pdf\">Urban Living\u2019s Sense of Place Project<\/a> in northwest Birmingham, England Noha Nasser of the University of Greenwich highlighted the outreach methods used to engage a diverse public in the process of neighborhood regeneration; i.e., in a process of co-creating the city.\u00a0 The population of the Soho-Dudley Road area is over 70% black and minority. \u00a0The neighborhood is a reception area for immigrants, and transiency is high. The population suffers from unemployment, inter-ethnic tension, and the kinds of social conditions that produce segregation, despair, and gang culture. Multiple methods were employed during the mapping phase of the project to gain understanding of what the place means to this diverse population of residents and to collect \u00a0their suggestions for improvement. These methods included visual observations, informal and in-depth interviews with passers-by and business owners, participatory arts workshops for kids that used images and music as prompts for starting conversations about place, and a variety of other social media and digital tools. A couple of \u201ccatalyst events\u201d brought the community together to discuss findings and aspirations.\u00a0 \u00a0A one day \u201cLiving Room\u201d event transformed Soho Road into a public space that allowed goals-setting and networking discussions.\u00a0 The \u201cCommunity Journalist Taster Workshop\u201d recruited locals to disseminate community news and information in exchange for training in digital skills.<\/p>\n<p>One particular finding indicated that the strongest affection shared among area residents was for the local park and library. This adds more evidence for Phil Wood\u2019s claim in the circulated pre-conference paper (page 8) that, when people are asked to identify popular intercultural spaces:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u2026the places mentioned with most frequency <\/em>[are]<em> not the highly designed or engineered public and corporate spaces but rather the spaces of day-to-day exchange such as libraries, schools, colleges, youth centres, sports clubs, specific cinemas, the hair salon, the hospital, markets and community centres.
