Abstract
This post-doc project explores the notion of 'sustainable cooperation' within the field of participatory urban design. It asks which strategies citizens, municipal planners and professional designers mobilize in order to align their interests. Phase one (exploration) consists of individual interviews with citizens shaping their own urban environment. Phase two (excavation) consists of group interviews with citizens,
planners and designers. Phase three ('consolidation') seeks to disseminate the findings within the Bostonian field of participatory urban
design. This project will constitute a vital, intermediate step towards the development of the 'Design Beyond Boundaries' online platform.
