Appreciative planning
Appreciative planning is a community focused citizen participation method, used to collect information from specific key stakeholders, to work out vision perspectives, missions and strategic objectives. Participants are encouraged and assisted in judging and rating previous planning achievements and in focussing further actions necessary to be taken. Appreciative planning originated in the Himalayan region[1], and, as defined by Ameyaw (2000)[2],is:
- an inclusive, participatory planning process in/for multicultural metropolitan environment(s;
- an approach to urban planning based on mutual respect, trust and care-based action in a multicultural context;
- a two-way learning and problem solving approach;
- enables planners to transfer multicultural assets into planning and city life;
- enables citizens and professionals to share the work;
- unites rational and nonrational processses of social interaction and social learning;
- focuses problem solving and decision-making;
- benefits the communities;
- has an emphasis on lasting engagement and dialogue.
Process description
=Discovery phase
Participants identify (security) characteristics of the community and recognize strengths and positive skills that can contribute to increase security
Components are[3]:
- Discovering and valuing strengths;
- Learning about the broader environmental, political and institutional context;
- Initial identification of success factors;
- Developing skills and empowering communities through participatory learning.
Social/community resource mapping
To gain a better comprehension of the environment, everything, that is considered to be of security relevance in and around the community, is mapped. This "discovery and resource map" on the current situation can be used as basis for mapping the desired future situation.
Mobility mapping
Movements of people, food, money and resources to and from the community are quantified and mapped. This can reveal potential to identify risk zones, security aspects, and to increasae local security.
Venn diagram
Community organizations and institutions, their roles and linkages and their interactions with participants are identified.
Seasonal calendar
A Seasonal calendar is used to identify the seasonal habits of the community. This can show event-related vulnerabilities and stress.
How does it support in planning of secure public spaces?
The appreciative concept can be understood as a practical approach to address culture aspects and ethics aspects in security related urban planning. Appreciative planning helps
- to collect security information from specific key stakeholders;
- to work out security perspectives, missions and strategic objectives;
- encourages and assists participants in judging and rating previous planning/security achievements and in focussing further actions necessary to be taken.
In England, for example, such inclusive concepts have become central considerations in planning development and counter-terrorism protection, such as designing out crime and terrorism, designing in community safety.[4])
