world cloud generated from participants' answers to the question of who is often left out of landscape consensus-building and decision-making processes

Particpants' answers:

  • landscape maintenance workers!
  • My experience is that e.g. participation process often involves acadmic and middle-class residents
  • Farmers affected by wild boar damage. They were left out of the decision over the change in hunting laws that was meant to address *the wildlife management issues. Two reasons. Lobbyists were consulted and the authorities did not consult those affected

children are out of landscape consensus-building

  • people that work in an area, they are there most of the day, so therefore most of their life, but never consider in having the say; or arae involved
  • Young individuals (under 23) are generally considerend as 'unworthy' to debate with about important landscape cnahnges and decisions
  • Young people- because their are not expected to understand
  • those who suffer from a language barrier
  • multitasking parents who never have time to get involved with the usual suspects - leads to an unwelcoming environment for kids in many places
  • From my experience older generations are partially left out from partecipatory processes
  • Actually I don't know because I don't have enough experience about participation process
  • Trendsetters. People who we look upon as non-experts
  • people who are not expert and pass from everything easily specially about public space
  • Primary and secondary school students are not engaged in the decision-making processes for open space in my town. The meeting environment does not work well with their schedules and often intimidates the young students to attend from participating.

young people

  • I think often concerned and affected citizens are left out of landscape consensus - building processes because hierarchical thinking in the administration is still dominating the planning processes unfortunately
  • homeless (2)
  • crazy people
  • urban mafia - invisible suspects; building of new hotel along water-pressure to the urban sector( corruption) for a permission to build, whereas ecologists, ngo's, citizens etc. protested against
  • the people who live near the planning object are mostly not included - because the state or land or region or city don't ask them. They might be dangerous because they don't share the opinion of the leaders.
  • people
