What Makes A Good City? Workshop Reflections
What Makes a Good City? This age-old question has been explored by many, with Plato鈥檚 ideal city-state as one of the oldest examples. Numerous criteria and indicators exist to define and measure the 鈥榞ood鈥� city. The disciplinary reflections in this publication are the results of an interdisciplinary workshop organised at 缅北禁地 on 24 May 2022 and explore 鈥榳hat makes a good city鈥� from multiple angles.
Workshop format
The workshop consisted of four groups of 5-6 colleagues from across 缅北禁地. Each group discussed three questions in three rounds of discussion, of thirty minutes each. After each round, the groups reported the main points in a wider group discussion.
The workshop questions:
- What are the key components of a good city?
- Who are the winners and losers in this good city?
- What is your favourite city?
