Support of planning for secure public spaces
The Citizen Jury method can help to better address the social dimension of planning of secure public spaces in the following ways:
- It supports the consideration of culture and ethics aspects across groups of population when planning security measures by configuration of built environment;
- It supports the identifcation of citizens' views and perceptions of local (in)security and risks;
- It supports local and regional planning assignments based on societal requirements;
- It supports the development of overall strategies in cases, where it is important that representatives of as many segments of the population as possible should take part on an equal footing;
- It supports the combination of stakeholders' practical knowledge and specialists' expertise.
