Summary

Budapest-Józsefváros: The request of participation was fulfilled in all phases of implementation and maintenance. There were design workshops with dwellers and local professionals, public consultations concerning the plans, voting on building materials, joint planting activities and equipment installation.

Medellin: The improvement of physical conditions in the slum bore some significant outcomes, for example high quality public spaces. But it should be more efforts in order to guarantee the livelihoods beyond the traditional approach such as housing and infrastructure. Furthermore it's important to improve the integration and the amount of comprehensiveness.

Parks in Neu Oerlikon: The four parks have a high artistic quality and were made for creating free space. The Wahlen Park is also used as a school meadow and is accepted well. The MFO Park reminds of the original buildings, is designed in different levels and some attractions are temporary or long-term existing. The Oerliker Park is seen as worse integrated and the idea, that users affect a new appearance of the park, doesn’t work yet. The lower utilization leads back to the very far construction of the new quarter Oerlikon within 5 years. As a result there is a lack of development, less own character and clinical, empty feeling.

Paseo del Buen Pastor: It fulfills the need of a new open place, of having alternatives for activities as well as the possibility for interactions with the society through art, culture and history in order to reinforce the identity.

Petuelpark: It responds to the need of having a green space for recreation. There are many different elements and possibilities for individual leisure activities, but it's a decrease while wintertime. Works of art, individual designed places and furniture and the typical style of the park, fulfills the requirement of having a unique place with own character.

Suleymaniye Regeneration Area: The ambition is to reach social and economical integration joint together to physical interventions.

Sulzer Factory Area: This area is marked by its need for adaptability. Nowadays, the human were brought into focus and the space is used as place of congregation.

Uggledal: It was a wish of the planner to preserve the specialties and characteristics of this area. So the local inhabitants who had ecological ambitions participate while the planning process. But the new inhabitant had aesthetic preferences.
