Citizen-led revitalization efforts have an important place in the community development and public safety sector. Small-scale efforts involving nonprofits can engage communities in planning processes and include marginalized voices that otherwise might not be considered. A strategy for accomplishing this is creative placemaking, which “emphasizes community engagement to strengthen connections between people and place by reshaping the public realm to maximize shared value.”
With community-based participation, the placemaking process capitalizes on local community assets and potential, and results in the creation of quality public spaces that contribute to people’s health, happiness, and well being.
