Our aim is to help municipal institutions and urban planning practitioners gain a better understanding of participatory urban planning. Here at BaseCamp you can find the ideal solution for your participatory projects. 

Despite its relatively recent origins, participatory planning is becoming the go-to approach to any urban development project. Public involvement in urban planning processes cannot always follow the same template. Every city and every municipality is unique and as such every project - from the revitalization of public spaces to strategic planning - requires a different participatory approach. It is therefore essential that practitioners in the field of participatory planning have a repertoire of different participatory methods and processes at their disposal. Here at BaseCamp, you will find online trainings of the most important skills for participatory planning, a glossary of frequently used terms, and a selection of case studies from the Czech Republic and Prague-based program of Coordinators of Participatory Planning, as well as case studies from other European countries.
