Geotagging

 

'Following our effort to map 'hyperlocal blogues' produced by citizens or groups of citizens with a focus on the future of their cities, neighborhoods or streets, I received a suggestion from Andrew Cheers, Placerama (http://placerama.com/).
He suggested that bloggers should add locations to their posts using a little-known feature of Blogger (geotagging)
http://bloggerindraft.blogspot.com/2008/12/new-feature-geotagging.html. Doing this they (we) could read their RSS feeds and show their posts to other local people'.

‘NO ECONOMIC RECOVERY WITHOUT CITIES!’ NETWORK & DEBATE

METHODOLOGY

 

[global idea] Organize debates in different (small, medium & metropolitan) cities around the world about ‘THE ROLE OF CITIES IN THE ECONOMIC RECOVERY!’;

 

[each city/municipality or community]

  1. Promote a collaborative set of debates involving artists, businessmen, professionals who ‘work with cities’ and citizens about ‘the role of my city in the economic recovery’, to discuss and understand key structural problems, identify key urban potentials and share innovative experiences in different aspects: (1) Urban Space, (2) Arts & Culture, (3) Mobility, (4) Environment & Green Spaces, (5) Climate Change, (6) Ageing;
  2. Produce (in the end these debates) a ‘LOCAL AGENDA FOR ECONOMIC RECOVERY’ where the stakeholders should share ideas/proposals to face economic recovery;
  3. Create a site/blog where all the information should be available (contacts, initiatives developed, good practice, actions proposed).
  4. Share the developments and results with the ‘NO ECONOMIC RECOVERY WITHOUT CITIES!’ NETWORK (noeconomicrecovery@gmail.com);
