Audio from the Change by Design report launch hosted by UCL Urban Laboratory on 30 November 2015. 

In a context of increasing instrumentalisation of participatory processes, how can participatory practices capture the diverse set of needs and aspirations of localities, offering potentials for people-centered, rather than market driven, urban change?

Session chaired by Katherine Wong (Architecture Sans Frontières-UK). Speakers in order:

Lianne Hartley (Mend London)
Catherine Greig (Make Good)
Viola Petrella (Architects for Social Housing)
Michael Edwards (Bartlett School of Planning, UCL)

The launch was a collaboration between Architecture Sans Frontières-UK, Citizens UK, UCL Urban Laboratory, The Bartlett Development Planning Unit UCL and the Sheffield School of Architecture.
