Abstract:

WORKSHOP LOCAL COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION

Presenter:

W.R. AINSWORTH OBE B.Arch. FRIBA.NICSD.FRSA


A building is one of the most powerful media for representing social values and identities. The solidarity of architecture defines the built environment which can effect a society for generations.

If a new socially aware architecture is to emerge then social engagement with effective public consultation should be a priority.

A massive and intelligent resource exists within communities, outside of those in public and private office who make the major decisions which form the built environment. Many of those within the system are poorly qualified and yet use their position and power to make ill-judged decisions. The past is littered with the long term results from short term, quick fix, financially limited and politically motivated considerations.

Effective community participation which can influence future solutions is difficult to achieve and methods of communication which can be properly understood are crucial to success. Motivation and overcoming public disinterest is one issue but more importantly, are the systems used in presentation and communication which everyone can comprehend.

There are a great many worthy voices. keen to contribute, and properly channelled would be a major force in shaping a community and society of the future.

As an example and only to generate discussion today, I use my city's present ambitions (Newcastle upon Tyne) in massive regeneration of a deprived area in the West End. Public consultation is at the heart of the master plan and time will tell if it is to prove successful.

A comparative city in size, where the core of a city-region has a population of approximately 550,000 within a city-region of 2.7 million is Seattle in America. The strategic plans for Newcastle upon Tyne are similar to Seattle, with a network of human scale. walkable 'urban village' neighbourhoods and communities, linked together. and to the city centre, by strategic public transport corridors.

The radical strategic vision, published in June 2000, prompted a high level of public debate. This was expressed by 100 consultation events involving over 3,000 residents of the city. Since that time. the feedback given at these

meetings has been analysed and the key messages have significantly adjusted proposals.

A city and its surroundings are made up of many diverse groups of people with different lifestyles, behaviours. beliefs and aspirations. It is widely recognised that our institutions, social systems, culture and individual views can exclude certain social groups from involvement in self-determination and also from the benefits of society that so many of us within the mainstream take for granted. The exclusion of these groups and their viewpoints is likely to lead to incomplete and distorted understandings and may result in unhelpful and uninformed practices and policies.

New ways to understand life within the city, learning together, to challenge as well as support with a broader base of participation. a more balanced understanding that can incorporate the diverse views, and aspirations of all groups of citizens are required to act as a basis for positive progress and change.

Newcastle's social inclusion commitment includes an experimental project recruiting a special team of young people to work on regeneration issues which are of key interest to that age group, particularly young people who are disaffected. This team is made up of young people who are themselves from a background of disaffection, without qualifications and recently from prison or probation. They will be dealing with difficult issues including crime. drugs, teenage pregnancy. asylum seeking and racism.

These are just a series of comments, not comprehensive, but hopefully helpful in generating debate in the subject of this workshop 'Local Community Participation'.
