[[File:Gezi Park.png|thumb|Taksim, Gezi Park, 2013 ]]
During a period of rapid urban development and gentrification in Turkey, early 2013s, . Many historic neighborhoods and green spaces in the city were being demolished. The government had announced plans to demolish the Gezi Park in Taksim Square and replace it with a shopping mall, which sparked a wave of protests across the country. The activists saw this as a threat to the democratic rights of citizens to participate in decision-making processes that impact their lives and their environment. •The movement was led by young designers who used their creative skills to mobilize support and raise awareness about the importance of preserving public spaces and green areas in the city. •The Istanbul Not For Sale campaign worked with urban planners and architects to develop alternative models of urban development that were more participatory and sustainable. They organized workshops and public forums where residents could share their ideas and concerns about the future of their neighborhoods •Through their efforts, the Istanbul Not For Sale campaign succeeded in raising awareness about the negative impacts of urban development and promoting alternative models of urban planning that were more participatory, sustainable, and equitable.

In the session on May 17 you will present a small role play with your team. Please add here a short reflection on what you have learned from this play
Empathy and perspective-taking: By immersing myself in the role of an activist and discussing a topic from their point of view, I can develop empathy and a deeper understanding of the challenges, motivations, and values that drive activists. This exercise encourages me to step into someone else's eyes and consider their experiences and perspectives.
