T4E14: Set bridges to connect the community with Edla, Miguel, Joao - Atelier Hurbanos

In this episode, architect Edla from Angola, architect Joao from Brazil, and geographer Miguel from Angola took us on a narrative journey to learn about the processes of Atelier Hurbanos in Luanda, Angola. We were talking about how they have taken a community-driven approach to placemaking, involving locals in the design and construction process. Also, how they transformed public libraries under bridges into a vibrant community space, in order to create tactical urban interventions and aim to build sustainable projects. Edla, Miguel y Joao think education is a key focus, teaching urbanism at small, local scales to change the relationship and meaning of public spaces.
