This project aims to use participatory urban media to test the effectiveness of co-designed screen-based interfaces in helping government and urban planners to better understand and design for rapidly urbanising cities by engaging designers and city stakeholders.

Expected outcomes include a reproducible approach to co-designing urban media for participatory engagement between city stakeholders and citizens which should significantly increase the capacity of Australia-China design partnerships to manage pressing regional urban and placemaking problems.Read moreRead less
