Experimental participation
The experimental participation method is one amongst other methods to determine legal aspects. It is is a participatory process, where the future residents are able to influence the decisions on their future living environment. They are influencing the planning and construction from the very beginning on a collaborative basis, and help produce building guidelines, which usually come "from above". A particular aim is to foster smaller-scale resident participation which should be implemented to improve the quality of the living environments (e.g. planning of recreational areas, green structures) in areas already built.
Process
Example: Each family reserved a lot by paying a few hundred euros, and had an opportunity to have a say in the construction and other matters as the housing area was built. Several meetings led by a project coordinator, who served as a link between the future residents and the city, were identified possible problems in planning the housing area. The group reached decisions by consensus, which were later adopted by the city.
Help in addressing cultural/ethical aspects in planning of secure public spaces
- Address unfamiliarity with the wide range of aspects related to the planning of a new housing area
- Foster learning
- Contribute to future problem-solving, creating a feeling of safety and a good general atmosphere
- Contribute to empowerment, showing citizens how they are able to influence many of the visual and functional aspects of their future neighborhood
