The Hôtel-Dieu in Nantes: a fictional process to a citizen-inspired approach
We have spent the last fifteen years in the neighbourhood of Dharavi, actively participating in the user-driven evolution of its material and social life. This has given us the confidence to conceptualise and embark on a project called “The ABCD of Dharavi Koliwada”. This article outlines the vision for the project.
Spontaneous workshopping through a 10-day-long Exhibition featuring community projects as part of the ABCD of Dharavi Koliwada
Koliwada Charcha is a week-long event with an interactive exhibition format, residents who visit will give feedback and comments about the 4 interventions planned for their neighbourhood. These interventions were identified by speaking with various stakeholder groups from Dharavi Koliwada, including the Dharavi Koli Jamat. The projects act as triggers to start thinking and strategising about an alternative development model for Koliwada, as part of the Action Based Comprehensive Development plan for Koliwada, or the ABCD.
