WORKSHOP: Territorial Approaches to Local Development: What does it entail and how can it be fostered in Eastern and Southern African countries? Dar-es-Salaam
Event
Conference
Posted on
The seminar has three major goals: 1) Clarify the concept of Territorial Approach to Local Development as an analytical framework that can be understood as the missing link between decentralization reforms and development outcomes. 2) Sharpen the understanding of the participants of the political economy of decentralization reforms (DR) in the region, and the conditions under which the reforms may lead to improved local governance (LG) and genuine local development (LD). 3) Recognize the opportunities and constraints that EU delegations may face in promoting Territorial Approach to Local Development (TALD), because of the context in which they operate, the demands of the EU aid management cycle and the aid modalities available to them.

Art & Architecture at Work in Urban Africa
Event
Conference
Posted on
The objective of Art & Architecture at Work at the 24th UN Habitat Governing Council Meeting [1] is to promote the role of art and architecture at the service of inclusive and sustainable urban development in African cities. Bottom-up initiatives, participatory approaches, and community involvement are increasingly valued in urban planning. Artists and architects together bring significant input to the process. Through the investment of public spaces, public art, and public architecture, they can engage civil society towards cultural ownership of the city and steer urban growth towards sustainable and inclusive patterns, alongside state-driven initiatives. Art & Architecture at Work presents recent best practices in Africa, as models to be encouraged as part of the urban planning processes. [1] http://www.unhabitat.org/categories.asp?catid=744
