Speech bubble (in purple against a mid-green background) asking the question 'Can young people be placemakers?'

Young people are often overlooked when it comes to placemaking, often labelled as hard to reach or stereotyped as the perpetrators of anti-social behaviour in our towns and cities. But young people know a thing or two about how places tick. What if we empowered them to be active placemakers? How might they influence how we shape our places for all generations?

In this chat we will explore what would happen if young people were enablers of place. How can we create space for them as active citizens and place leaders today, rather than just consultees and those who will inherit in the future what we create for them today?

This session will be chaired by The Glass-House team, who will briefly introduce the theme and then open the floor for an informal and open discussion among participants.
