Embedding digital narratives and new media in urban planning

Year: 2007

Type: article

Abstract: Many new urban developments are systematically planned and rapidly built and marketed, creating instant “communities‿ in relatively dense concentrations. As a consequence, urban planners are turning to the social sciences, arts and humanities for answers to achieve socially sustainable developments. This paper discusses a narrative based approach to community engagement in the urban planning process. We describe the evolution of this approach and then give details of both a narrative resource kit as well as a method for arriving at this.
