Well-designed public spaces can facilitate the enjoyment of neighbourhood life and better support density of activities, uses and users. In general, slums are characterised by a very limited amount of public space, since land is occupied for residential and private uses, with weak or no provision for public uses. In such contexts, public space is crowded and supports many different activities and functions. In such contexts, public spaces can become a highly symbolic element of civic engagement and citizenship, as well as an important anchor of upgrading interventions. Streets and public spaces are vital elements in the improvement of quality of life in informal areas, particularly in densely-occupied settlements where their absence is the source of multiple problems faced by informal areas dwellers and the city as a whole. Public spaces have always attracted young people . Most young people use public space actively and frequently and is one of the few havens where young people can \u2018hang out\u2019 without parental control . For children and young people, the barriers and restrictions on access to public spaces are complex and numerous . They include planning and design elements as well as social developments,<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: medium;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492276988399_17966\">The workshop aims to a shed a light on the impact of place making in informal areas and marginalized communities around the city of Cairo as a tool to enhance the quality of livening especially for children<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: small;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Deadline for Application:<\/strong><\/span> 21<sup>st<\/sup> April 2017<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Who Can Apply:<\/strong> <\/span>Students &amp; Young Professionals of planners, architects, social activists &amp; as well as those with previous experience in place making or have interest to be innovative in activating places in unplanned areas around Cairo.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>How to Apply:<\/strong><\/span> kindly Send a letter of Interest &amp; a short Bio\/Portfolio to Arch.
