  • Activating the Gap Between Knowledge and Imagination
    Activating the gap between knowledge and imagination: Exploring the scope for partnership between the arts and sciences towards more inclusive environmental change policy development This three-day workshop event is an enquiry into the efficacy of current climate and environmental change policy and reflects upon the need for a broader disciplinary spectrum in the policy development process. The intention is to scrutinise identifiable gaps in the generation, consultation and implementation of environmental policy, one example of this is where it applies to water and flood risk management. However whatever the manifestation of change may be, it is frequently stated that policy fails at the governance stage due to resistance at a societal level, the reasons for which are many and varied, but indicate that the challenges we are facing at present are far too complex to account for through a pragmatic problem and solution process. It has long been a matter of frustration for the arts community that a cultural perception of the value conferred upon place and belonging by communities has not been considered to be a necessary component in the governance process where it most certainly can become an impediment to implementation. This partnership does not set out to answer questions but more to explore with the wider scientific and policy development communities the issues that exist, where they are managed satisfactorily through existing mechanisms and how the arts might serve to enhance understanding and widen the scope and efficacy of environmental change policy. We are inviting specialists from the arts, social sciences, the physical and cultural geography communities and the policy generation sector, to reflect upon the wealth of arts initiatives that already exist and have been applied in ad hoc fashion across the globe, and to discuss other areas where similar or differing initiatives could be considered.

  • A Rail Manifesto for London
    A Rail Manifesto for London The new covered walkway linking Hackney Central and Hackney Downs stations creates an interchange which provides a better connection and more journey opportunities March 2016 A Rail Manifesto for London Railfuture1 seeks to inform and influence the development of transport policies and practices nationally and locally. We offer candidates for the 2016 London Mayoral and Assembly elections this manifesto2, which represents a distillation of the electorate’s aspirations for a developing railway for London, for delivery during the next four years or to be prepared for delivery during the following period of office. Executive Summary Recognising the importance of all rail-based transport to the economy of London and to its residents, commuters and visitors alike, Railfuture wishes to see holistic and coherent rail services across all of London, integrated with all other public transport, with common fares and conditions. Achieving this is covered by the following 10 policy themes: 1. Services in London the Mayor should take over. The 2007 transfer of some National Rail services to TfL has been a huge success, transforming some of the worst services in London into some of the best performing. Railfuture believes it is right that the Mayor should take over responsibility for more rail services in London, either by transferring service operation to TfL or by TfL specifying service levels to the operator, and that this must benefit all of London. 2. Improved Services. Frequencies play an important role in the success of metro and suburban train services. We believe that the Mayor should set out the minimum standards of service levels across London seven days per week for all rail services.
