Our Manifesto

THE CITYSTUDIO WAY

We don’t employ a devil’s advocate at CityS- tudio. We say Yes more than No. We remain curious and stay open to others’ ideas.

We learn by doing. By following an idea. By experimenting with our hands. By taking risks. By trying, struggling and failing forward fast.

And in the end, we have done something that is real. We find ways to tackle global issues by putting a project on the ground in a local place.

We learn that good projects come from good relationships. That working together is the only way it can work. And that we can’t solve a complex problem without hearing from everyone affected by it.

We sit in a circle and speak from our hearts and our minds. We learn to listen. We learn to enjoy the long pause that emerges in a rich dialogue. We learn how to design. We find better problems to solve. We learn that aesthetics matter.

We work on a team and reflect on our process together. We believe that small projects can add up to big changes in our community, our city and in ourselves.

And if we do it right, we will be high fiving at the end.

We’ve been to the future and it ends well.

Trust the Process. 2

How We Work WE USE A FIVE STEP PROCESS FOR PROJECTS

CityStudio’s mission is to create liveable, sustainable and joyful cities by connecting post-secondary students with city staff to design and launch experimental projects on-the-ground. Our manifesto guides all that we do; we say Yes more than No, we learn by doing, we trust the process and we believe small projects add up to big changes in the community. STEP 1 CONVENE CITY STAFF

Once a year we convene city staff to identify and develop project concepts that further Vancouver's strategic aims.

STEP 2 MATCH PROJECTS WITH SCHOOLS

We match these projects with courses at our partner schools, ensuring a strong fit between city needs and faculty expertise.

STEP 3 DESIGN PROJECTS TOGETHER

As part of their coursework, students work together with city staff to co- create pilot projects for the benefit of community.

STEP 4 LAUNCH PROJECTS IN PUBLIC

Final projects are launched by students as experiments and pilot projects in the community to test what works.

STEP 5 SHARE AND SCALE PROJECTS

The results are presented at HUBBUB, a celebratory showcase where students, City staff, community and elected officials connect to make these solutions permanent. 11

The project hi- ghlights the resources that already exist within communities, builds connections between people, and encourages a local sharing eco- nomy. Buddy Boards continue to be installed and used in offices, community centres and apartment buildings around Vancouver. SFU PROJECT: VANCOUVER VOTING VAN In an effort to serve Vancouver’s low-income com- munity and encourage participation in the 2018 municipal election, students in Daniel Ahadi’s Political Communications class envisioned the use of a mobile voting center and information kiosk. The project recognizes that the main obstacle that prevents low-income households from participating in elections is the accessibi- lity of information and voting opportunities. The Vancouver Voting Van was awarded second place at HUBBUB #10. It was one of several Get Out the Vote projects in collaboration with the City’s Election Outreach team.

SFU PROJECT: CHALKTALKS A project of the Semester at CityStudio program, students piloted the use of public chalkboards to facilitate conver- sations and activate underutilized space. Four chalkboards were installed on the Cambie Bridge pillars featuring prompts including “What makes you smile?” and “I’ve been meaning to tell you...” The boards were a success at the students’ Bridge Warming event and as a result were granted funding by the City of Vancouver for stewardship in collaboration with CityStudio until December 2018.

SFU PROJECT: ECO POUCH As part of Lisa Papania's Product Design and Development class, students tackled the everyday problem of packing a zero waste lunch by creating a sustainable alter- native to plastic bags and containers: the EcoPouch. The 2-layer sandwich pouch is designed for convenience and environmental sustainability with a high-quality canvas exterior and an interior made of composable parchment paper. The project was awarded third place at HUBBUB #10. CITYSTUDIO VANCOUVER • 2017-2018 UBC PROJECTS 17

UBC PROJECT: YOUTH CYCLING In a first for CityStudio, Kinesiology students in Andrea Bundon’s Health Promotion and Physical Activity class worked with City staff to investigate youth perspectives and habits of cycling in Vancouver.

The pro- ject’s recommendations showcased at HUBBUB #10 inspired Councillor Adriane Carr to put forward a new motion to : “Increasing Cycling Education and Safety Training for Youth in Vancouver Schools.” The motion was passed unanimously by Council.

LANGARA PROJECT: URBAN HEAT ISLAND EFFECT As part of their design studio, four student groups explored, researched and designed physical interventions that would mitigate the Urban Heat Island Effect in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. The groups worked closely with both the City of Vancouver and Strathcona BIA to create their designs, and presented their ideas to a panel of community experts. A hybrid of two ideas were chosen to receive funding from the City’s Down- town Eastside Capital Grant to create and test a full-scale prototype.

LANGARA PROJECT: TELL-A-FRIEND CAMPAIGN In this unique, multi-semester and multi-disciplinary project be- tween Langara and the Vancouver Immigration Partnership, nur- sing students from this year’s course led by instructor Lyren Chiu built on research compiled by students in Spring 2017. They further developed the Tell-a-Friend campaign by interviewing local staff and conducting a literature review, before making LANGARA PROJECT: recommendations for more effectively connecting newcomers to OPEN WASHROOM settlement services. The project will continue to move forward PROJECT with the help of future Langara students. Through Colin Mills’ Applied Human Geography class, students explored and tested solutions to the problem of public urination in Downtown Vancouver’s Granville Enter- tainment District, including the creation of a “pee planter” proto- type which they piloted in an alley adjacent to Granville Street.

The team was awarded 3rd Place at HUBBUB #10 and has received $5,000 from a funding body at Langara to continue the project. CITYSTUDIO VANCOUVER • 2017-2018 TEN DIFFERENT THINGS 27
