Liveable Neighbourhoods: Renaissance, Regeneration and Reconstruction, A+DS with the Academy of Urbanism Report published

The Congress used the context of Glasgow as a ‘learning laboratory’ to inform seminars, workshops and visits, building on the backdrop of the city’s 30-year journey of transformation - from 'the worst corner of Britain' (Observer 1980) to 'a fantastic world class city' (Conde Naste)

A+DS curated three of the workshop sessions at the Congress on Health, Housing and Learning supported by the Urbanism, Schools, Health and Design Review Teams. A series of provocation papers were prepared to inform these sessions, with a summary paper which discusses the ideas of community and neighbourhood in a contemporary context. Following the Congress, A+DS compiled a report on the Congress. This draws together the themes from the Congress presentations, seminars, site visits and workshops, and blends critical thinking on contemporary urban policy to create a learning resource from the event.

The Congress report has now been published and is viewable, along with all the other reports, below and available to download from A+DS website at:
