"The friendly city?”
The " city anger " continues to frighten. So the question arises: how to make our cities more attractive, more pleasant? The first steps are now being taken to make the city friendly, peaceful and safe.
Which projects, achievements or management methods can contribute to this extra vitality? Give more space for positive emotion, this forgotten dimension in our cities? More attention to the experience, especially that of women or children?
Many good examples will be presented and discussed: they show that
new horizons emerge, that their new attention is focused on the friendly city.
