Landscape Democracy Rationale
With the aim of successfully improving a district, we are confronting keywords. Those are innovation, sustainability and inclusion.
- Innovation means renewal: What are the offers? What is old and needs to be restored? What is missing? What does the district need?
- Sustainability means consideration for our natural resources: What ecosystems are in the described landscape? What does traffic mean for the district?
- Inclusion means that everyone belongs to the community: Which people live in the neighborhood? Who uses the district as a commuter, buyer or tourist? What are the social offers?
The task is to evaluate which of these keywords already exist in an existing district, wether they need to be improved or how you can reintegrate them into the district. A quarter improvement should be done with the residents, but it is important to listen not only to the stronger voices, but to all. In order to create a new sense of community from the very beginning, which continues until the renovations have been completed and every following generation.
Location and scope
- Location : Germany, Nürtingen 72622, Klein Tischardt
Phase A: Mapping your Community
Welcome to your community and its landscape
Kein-Tischardt is located directly below the historic centre of Nürtingen, between the rivers Neckar and Steinach and the Stuttgart - Tübingen railway line. There is affordable housing, various retailers and restaurants. The lack of public spaces and interaction problems between the residents are the shortcomings.
Groups of actors and stakeholders in your community
There are a variation of actors, including the city of Nürtingen with different institutions. In addition, restaurants, clubs and retailers are distributed throughout the district. All these stakeholders lack a meeting and communication area, which makes a clear infrastructure unreadable.
Relationships between your actors and groups
The groups are represented to be evenly important for the growth of the district. But the main players for in the district are the city of Nürtingen and the residents of Klein-Tischardt itself. Above all, there is the administration of the district, which is under the control of the city. As a result, all proposals are handled through the city counsil. The city tries to take into account all actors and sub-communities, but their wishes are only at one of the latter. What is important to all involved in Klein-Tischardt is the upgrading of the infrastructure and free space design.
Summary of your learnings from the transnational discussion panel on April 22
On April 22 you will present the PPT version of this first assignment to other seminar groups working in other geographical community contexts. Please give here a short summary of your learnings during this presentation, for example:
- That i should read myself on various alaytical processes in order to achieve a broad result. With different media and specific questions (Who might we?).
- I should better tune my content and presentation for better clarity. It is known to me that i know my district the best, but i have to be able to transmit my knowledge to others too.
- Other value schemes: any surprises?
- Constructive comments we received on our presentation
Theory reflection
The three sessions about 'Democratic Landscape Transformation' were very informativ, in the beginning to learn that there is no definitive formulation to landscape democracy or that there can be more than one possible solution can be quite helpful in finding motives to transform a landscape in a democratic principle. Also to understand the backstories of landscape and communities, with the understanding of the word democracy on its own has given me a new perspective in uncovering informations.
- Reflect on at least three readings from the first section 'Democratic Landscape Transformation
- From the LED2LEAP Session 1: wicked landscape democracy (Rittel, H.W.,& Webber, M. M. (1973). Dilemmas in a general theory of planning. Policy science) The posibility to evaluation different problems with these 7 descriptions, like with the corona pandemic.
