Gehl – Making Cities for People

Gehl Institute presents…
<H2>Tools for Change — Public Life Matters</H2>
This summer Shin-pei Tsay, Executive Director of Gehl Institute, will host "Tools for Change" with a focus on public life. Public life is what happens when people connect in public space, and can be an impetus to increase inclusivity, improve health, expand access to opportunities, and drive change that benefits everyone. Achieving public life allows everyone to thrive.

<H3 CLASS="MsoNormal">“People thrive when neighborhoods are vibrant, inviting, and accessible to everyone. Quality public spaces strengthen community bonds, and create opportunities for strangers to rub shoulders. Public life matters.” </H3>
<H3 CLASS="MsoNormal">— Shin-pei Tsay, Executive Director of Gehl Institute</H3>

Join Shin-pei and the Gehl team for three action-packed days.  Copenhagen will be your laboratory, a unique place to try out new tools for measuring and evaluating public life in public spaces and for discussing how quick urban interventions can radically transform and speed up the process of planning. 
Along with Shin-pei and the Gehl team, you will walk-about, bicycle, listen to talks, engage in the analysis of case studies, join working sessions and eat delicious food, all the while forming a network of champions who are taking on the challenge of designing cities for people.
