The city is a laboratory where experiments are made with innovative ways to solve a range of metropolitan issues and generate social value.
In so-called field labs in the neighbourhoods and districts of Amsterdam, these innovative processes are taking shape at a local level. Co-creation and the participation of residents is paramount, even while there is a clear need for new forms of collaboration, in order to arrive at updated, better suited urban interventions. Field labs offer the space to experiment, striving to develop knowledge and transform practices directly with those involved, and not “about” or “for” them.
This book offers the relevant experiences and answers to push forward.
