Our interdisciplinary team is passionate about revitalising in-between spaces in ways that provide for multiple co-benefits for diverse stakeholders, including vulnerable groups. We have expertise in ensuring spatial planning recognises and integrates:

• the social values of local communities (e.g., aesthetic, recreation, food, social relations, sense of place)

• ecological values of native plants and animals (e.g., habitat quality, species diversity)

• gender issues, including issues of procedural, recognitional and distributive justice, the needs and established strategies of cities, social entrepreneurs and housing associations
