SUMMARY:The Integrated City: Local Cultural Policy and Sustainable Integrated Urban Development
DESCRIPTION:This seminar at UCT’s African Centre for Cities looks to continue a set of dialogues around cultural governance and sustainable urban development in South Africa. It brings two processes together: \n\n  The Local Cultural Policy Agenda: South African cities are potential spaces for dynamic change as a result of being the nexus for flows of people and ideas. Culture is increasingly seen as significant in urban transformation.  A long-term approach to exploring innovative urban governance frameworks that forward the use of culture has been proposed as a research agenda. These speak to new national frameworks around integrated urban development as well as revisions to the Arts and Culture White paper.\nIntegrating the Dual City:  The African Centre for Cities recent Integration and Ideas Festival continue a interest in the role of culture for sustainable development\, putting forward a number of innovative provocations to address the dual city.  These included a strong focus on issues related to culture (memory\, storytelling and identity)\, placemaking (densified\, dynamic neighborhoods) and relationality (including through mobility\, solidarity networks\, “hubs”\, and the digital space).\n\nThe seminar objectives \n\nFurther a dialogue between researchers working in civil society and government concerned with the culture and its role in  urban transformation.\nTo test the viability of a specific provocation – the UCLG Agenda 21 for Culture – Culture Actions: a framework for  governance that furthers the use of culture for sustainable development in cities –  against provocations at the recent  festival\, and including engaging with practitioners.\n\nTo identify possible future paths of inquiry and collaboration amongst researchers based in Cape Town with those elsewhere in South Africa.\n\nWHEN: 17 August 2018\nTIME: 8.30 for 9:00-15:00\nVENUE: John Martin Room\, New Engineering Building\, UCT\nRSVP: Places are limited.
