Design for Diversity: Intercultural Outdoor Places

This publication is a report on the Design for Diversity: Intercultural Outdoor Places symposium that was held on 13th May 2015 at the Showroom in Sheffield, UK. The symposium was organised by the Transnational Urban Outdoors (TUO) research group based at the Department of Landscape. Six speakers from both landscape architecture and academia addressed topics related to the value of parks as places of shared leisure, the importance of central prestige locations and how sitting outside can both reflect ethnic diversity and support local cohesion. The report includes summaries and audio recordings of these.
