Designing Participatory Spaces – Staff Exchange

From 01/03-08/03, BASIS Vinschgau Venosta participated in the staff exchange “Designing Participatory Spaces / Placemaking Interventions and Local Impact in Malmö.”
The exchange is hosted by STPLN in Malmö and organized within the Staff Exchange scheme of the European Creative Hubs Network, funded by the European Commission.

The mentoring format combined:

Peer-to-peer exchange
Job shadowing
Field investigation
Participation in workshops and interventions
Structured reflection sessions
Throughout the week, the focus is on understanding how participatory design and placemaking interventions activate public spaces, foster inclusive participation, and generate long-term local impact.

The exchange contributes to the development of more resilient, participatory, and context-sensitive placemaking strategies at BASIS Vinschgau Venosta.
