We believe that urban forms – in fact all habitats – are energized by its citizens and users. The contingencies of contemporary economic and political needs produce overarching frameworks and policies that produce top-down urban visions. These cannot fully match the complexity of what urban economies are all about. So far – policies have been simply pushing ahead and providing quick-fix solutions to the leakages – which in several contexts are pretty large. Instead, what our projects try to do is simply allow residents and users of neighbourhoods to have a say, propose plans, collaborate with professional and take charge of their spaces in cultural, economic and social terms. We believe that Dharavi is already developing, it doesn’t need to be redeveloped. What it needs is support systems. We have an office in Dharavi and networks deep in the communities there with whom we work on specific projects – cultural, economic, architectural and beyond.
URBZ is our portal – part online – part on the ground. It provides a set of tools for residents and users to start the process of taking charge of their neighbourhoods. The online side is an interactive website that allows users to work with a global community of supporters. It offers a way for them to showcase and upload their city/habitat/neighbourhood onto the virtual world in a manner that connects to a hyper-local scale where the smallest of information becomes a source of local control. We use all existing online technologies and make them accessible to the residents through on-the ground activities such as workshops and community related get-togethers around specific issues. We complement this process by supporting local initiatives by connecting users to each other in a manner that allow skills to be shared.
URBZ was co-founded by Geeta Mehta and us and we have a big team helping us and working with us – Cole from Chile, Nishit Mehta our ICT coordinator and Dipti and George our interns working with us now besides a whole host of partners and interns details of whom can be seen on our site.
