As part of YOUR CITY, Young people are making Rotterdam Zuid, the Kijk op Zuid foundation and AIR organised a debate about how young citizens are using their urban environment. With project developers, visual artists, residents and the municipality.
During YOUR CITY, Young people are making Rotterdam Zuid, young citizens gave shape to their ideas for Rotterdam Zuid. Together with architects and visual artists it was investigated how young citizens can create and develop their own areas. What is the role of youngsters in the urban development process? Enterprising and sporty young people showed us during two parts of the programme – I Bridge You and Freestyle Sports – how they would like to use their living environment, as project developers of their own areas as it were. On 27 November 2009 the Kijk op Zuid foundation and AIR organised a debate about the meaning of YOUR CITY, Young People are making Rotterdam Zuid. What role can young citizens play in future urban development?
