Community Ideas. Powered by PechaKucha

Talk

Tuesday 28 January 2020
18:30 - 20:00

An evening to showcase examples and case studies of best practice of community engagement in the built environment sector. 
The first in a series of PechaKuchas across 2020 as part of NLA’s new Enabling Communities programme. The programme aims to discuss, define and promote best practice of community engagement that achieves a more collective, representative and meaningful approach to the design, development and delivery of places in London and beyond. 

The format, Pecha Kucha (ペチャクチャ), was devised in Tokyo in 2003 by the English architect Mark Dytham and has turned into a massive global celebration of design, with events happening in hundreds of cities around the world. Drawing its name from the Japanese term for the sound of "chit chat", it rests on a presentation format that is based on a simple idea: 20 images x 20 seconds. The format makes presentations concise, keeps things moving at a rapid pace and holds its audience. 

This content is only available to NLA members.
