Global Public Space Toolkit

This toolkit titled Global Public Space is designed to address the lack of attention given to public space in both academic literature and global policy discussions, despite its critical role in sustainable urban development. It aims to provide practical guidance and resources for local governments to improve access to quality public spaces and for central governments to support these efforts through material aid and enabling legislation. Additionally, the toolkit emphasises the importance of citizen and civil society involvement in securing, developing, and managing public spaces within cities, underscoring their vital contribution to urban livability. Overall, the toolkit seeks to promote the value of public space and facilitate its enhancement as a key component of urban planning and governance.
