552. Cultural placemaking - Bruno Costa and Daniel Vilar
Description
We unpack the idea of cultural placemaking and how it differs from traditional urban development. We explore why artists and cultural organizations should play a bigger role in shaping cities, how participation can turn audiences into co-creators, and whether temporary events can spark lasting change. We close with a key takeaway for every placemaker—a single idea, tool, or provocation to carry forward.
Guests:
Bruno Costa and Daniel Vilar, Co-directors of Bússola
