Who cares about the spaces between the gated communities, the industrial parks, and the concrete flyovers in India’s burgeoning urban landscape?
We do!
We are Placemaking India, a self-organized network of architects, urban designers, planners, researchers and bloggers, geographers, heritage conservationists, citizen intermediaries, social workers, and local and regional government administrators.
We are a regional learning network and change agenda of PlacemakingX, with 22 affiliates worldwide. We are committed to healthy, safe, inclusive, and beloved communities in South Asia.
