“From Breil to Barcelona : in search of an egalitarian urban planning” is an investigative journey that began in Breil—identified as a “priority neighbourhood” in the city of Nantes — and extended all the way to Barcelona, a pioneer in feminist urban planning, with the aim of generating perspectives for action at the local level. Together, architects and socio-educational facilitators set out to investigate what an egalitarian city might look like and how to share its creation with young people, paying close attention to issues of gender, ecology and equality. The making of the city, the environment and the living environment are everyone’s business. The participating organisations – Aléas (France), Equal Saree and Punt6 (Spain) – are convinced of this. To ensure that those who will conceive and design the cities of tomorrow possess diverse and complementary perspectives, engaging with young people is essential. Generally speaking, this initiative pursued the following objectives: - to build a community of female professionals whose architectural practice is firmly rooted in a socio-educational dynamic; - to encourage women, particularly young women aged 11 to 23, to take ownership of public space; - to raise awareness of gender inequalities in public spaces and of access to social spaces for empowerment from a very young age; - to foster a culture of equality; - to encourage young women from priority neighbourhoods under the urban policy to feel empowered to participate in civic initiatives concerning urban transformation and to foster their capacity for action; - to promote inclusive and egalitarian practices in contemporary urban planning to the general public, with a particular focus on young people; - to change attitudes and practices in order to promote equal access, use, imagination and urban transformation within the professions of urban planning, architecture and landscape. The partners structures involved in this mobility project are contributing to discussions at the intersection of three fields that are rarely brought together: community education, gender studies and urban development. Each partner operates at the intersection of these fields, which represents a unique and valuable asset within the European landscape. This triple expertise – in feminist design, spatial studies and popular education – enables us to offer genuinely participatory approaches, particularly with young people, to foster a democratic, civic and shared urban fabric. The networking, supported by the Erasmus+ programme as part of this mobility initiative, has allowed us to work together to come together, and then to disseminate and expand these practices across Europe. The long-term objectives are to establish a common framework for the democratic, civic, collective and shared development of the city; to integrate the field of architecture into the practices of community education; and to promote participatory approaches and the importance of civic engagement amongst the more conventional stakeholders in urban projects. Our emancipatory visions are thus rooted in the values of equality, diversity, inclusion and ecology, promoting learning through action and ensuring everyone’s access to the right to the city. We share a common vision: that of architecture serving to empower citizens, and of community education rooted in the spatial, social and political realities of local areas. We put all our skills at the service of a new way of working, at the crossroads of knowledge and experience.
