Stop and Search Policy Rotterdam Law State of Exception Ban on Public AFRIKAANDERWIJK COOPERATIVE The Afrikaanderwijk is not only a place where you can find unique products and services, it also houses many talented inhabitants. After successfully experimenting with local cooperative workspaces, Freehouse decided to further increase cooperative work on a neighbourhood level. The Afrikaanderwijk Cooperative is the result and forms an umbrella organisation that brings together the existing workspaces with shopkeepers, local makers, social foundations and the AFRIKAANDER WERKCOOPERATIE market organization. It stimulates sustainable local production, cultural (AFRIKAANDER WORK CO-OP) development, knowledge exchange and entrepreneurship, which are As part of the Afrikaander Neighbourhood combined with shared responsibility and participation.

  • Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization
    WELCOME ADDRESSES Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus was elected as WHO Director-General for a five-year term by WHO Member States at the Seventieth World Health Assembly in May 2017. He is the first WHO Director-General to have been elected from multiple candidates by the World Health Assembly, and is the first person from the WHO African Region to serve as WHO’s chief technical and administrative officer. Immediately after taking office on 1 July 2017 Dr Tedros outlined five key priorities for the Organization: universal health coverage; health emergencies; women’s, children’s and adolescents’ health; health impacts of climate and environmental change; and a transformed WHO. Prior to his election as WHO Director-General, Dr Tedros served as Ethiopia’s Minister of Foreign Affairs from 2012–2016. In this role he led efforts to negotiate the Addis Ababa Action Agenda, in which 193 countries committed to the financing necessary to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. Dr Tedros served as Ethiopia’s Minister of Health from 2005–2012, where he led a comprehensive reform of the country’s health system. All roads lead to universal health coverage for Dr Tedros, and he has demonstrated what it takes to expand access to health care with limited resources. The transformation he led as Ethiopia’s Minister of Health improved access to health care for millions of people. Under his leadership Ethiopia invested in critical health infrastructure, expanded its health workforce, and developed innovative health financing mechanisms. Beyond Ethiopia, Dr Tedros’ global leadership on malaria, HIV/AIDS, and maternal and child health has been immensely impactful.

  • Shophouse Transformation in Feijenoord
    Housing Transformation in Feijenoord, Rotterdam Student name: Y.K. Poon |4118561 ShopHouse Transformation in Feijenoord Introduction ShopHouse is a vernacular building type. ShopHouses are mostly two to three stories high, each with a shop operated on the ground floor for commercial activity and a dwelling above the shop. They are mixed-use buildings that serve social and economical functions. They could be found not only in Nederland, but are also very common in other countries. Usually, the dwelling part of the building is housing family of the owner of the ground floor shop. The relationship between shop and dwelling is close and direct. However, this building type became displaced in the twentieth century. “Shops” were claimed as sources of nuisance, and excluded from dwelling area. Housing developments, especially those being built after the Second World War (WWII), are always pure dwellings. Example of the displacement of the ShopHouse could be found in Feijenoord of Rotterdam. Feijenoord was developed into a port industrial area in the late nineteenth century, ShopHouse were built for the port workers of ports and their families at that time1. However, these ShopHouse were substantially changed over the past hundred years. Functionally, the relationship between shop and dwelling are disconnected recently. The shop operators may not live in the dwelling units above. Physically, some of ShopHouse were renovated, of which some shops were removed from the building in the Seventies. And last year, rows of ShopHouse in Oranjeboomstraat were demolished and left vacant (see fig. 1). Once being so dominant in urban culture and street fabric, what is the future of this building typology? Is being demolished the only way out for it? In this writing, the fall of ShopHouse is briefly narrated.

    1 Rotterdam Resilience Strategy, Rotterdam 1.1. Introduction Rotterdam is facing several challenges including climate change and notable urbanization and digitalization, which have not only brought new opportunities but also brought new risks. Since 80% of its urban area is below sea level, water management has always been vital on the resilience agenda in Rotterdam. With the intensification of urbanization processes, permeable areas to manage stormwater drainage are diminishing. At the same time, climate change only adds to the problem, raising the probability of storms and floods and thus forcing the city to rapidly adapt into more resilient actions and strategies. On May 2016, the city of Rotterdam launched its very first resilience strategy to make the city resilient and ready for the challenges of the 21st century. To reproduce the current framework where Rotterdam is towards resilience, this chapter will briefly look into the 2016 resilient strategy and also have a brief glimpse on the history of the evolution of the urban policies on sustainable adaptations in Rotterdam. 1.2.

  • Embassy of Youth: Loitering Teens of Rotterdam-Zuid Discover Their Unique Talents
    Embassy of Youth: Loitering teens of Rotterdam-Zuid discover their unique talents Design by Lisa van de Merwe Text by Pieter Desmet You probably know the headlines “Loitering teens ruin late night shopping around metro station Beurs”, “Loi- tering teens plague the IJsselmonde district”, “Com- plaints about municipality of Rotterdam after trouble with loitering teens”, and “Amsterdam district Banne Buiksloot terrorised by loitering teens”. A loitering teen is an infamous phenomenon. When he – usually a boy – makes the news, it is usually due to nuisance, littering or vandalism. In order to reduce that nuisance, far-reaching measures are sometimes taken. In ex- treme cases, municipalities may impose a restraining order or a ban on gathering in groups, if necessary with police enforcement. Less drastic is installing a so- called Mosquito, a device that produces a high-pitched sound. Inaudible to adults, but particularly irritating to adolescents. That is only one of the means by which teens are ‘chased away’ from their spots, just like ex- perimentation with increased camera supervision, playing classical music, police surveillance and even applying pink lighting. 2 The stereotypical troublemaker vations and experiences, the meaning of street life Measures against loitering teens are often under- and how their self-image is infuenced by the resi- standable, and maybe even necessary. But, at the dents’ responses. Additionally, Lisa also spoke to a same time, they leave a bitter aftertaste –solutions diverse group of residents, youth workers and other such as the Mosquito almost remind me of some experts. As it turned out, the boys experience their kind of pest control.

  • The Netherlands Spatial Development for Port Area in City- Region Focusing on the Case of Kop Van Zuid in Rotterdam
    ARCHITECTURAL RESEARCH, Vol. 22, No. 4(December 2020). pp.135-143 pISSN 1229-6163 eISSN 2383-5575 The Netherlands Spatial Development for Port Area in City- Region Focusing on the Case of Kop van Zuid in Rotterdam Hee Jae Lee and Heejoon Whang Doctoral Candidate, Department of Architecture, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany Professor, School of Architecture, Hanyang University, Seoul, South Korea https://doi.org/10.5659/AIKAR.2020.22.4.135 Abstract The Netherlands is a human-made country and an extremely well-designed European country as well. The general Dutch spatial planning for the city and environment takes place at a regional level. The local community determines the primary development conditions, and the prospect is included in a legally binding land-use plan. Especially, Rotterdam is a representative port city as the center of world trade and the gateway to western Europe. According to the history of war, the city reconstruction and the movement of the port area have led to a general change in Rotterdam and the regional redevelopment project on the southern port area of Mass river for the expansion of city functions and the balanced development. The research purpose is to understand the spatial development of the Netherlands city-region based on the analysis regarding the Kop van Zuid project, which is a representative implemented case in Rotterdam. The theoretical framework is the five dimensions and twelve indicators of territorial governance from the TANGO research project by the EU. The target case is assessed by planning and social aspect, respectively, and the results are discussed based on the theoretical framework.

  • MUSLIMS in ROTTERDAM Muslims in Rotterdam
    OSI.MIE.ROTT.PF2-3-4jav:Layout 1 11/2/2010 12:26 PM Page 1 AT HOME IN EUROPE ★ MUSLIMS IN ROTTERDAM Muslims in Rotterdam Whether citizens or migrants, native born or newly-arrived, Muslims are a growing and varied population that presents Europe with challenges and opportunities. The crucial tests facing Europe’s commitment to open society will be how it treats minorities such as Muslims and ensures equal rights for all in a climate of rapidly expanding diversity. The Open Society Foundations’ At Home in Europe project is working to address these issues through monitoring and advocacy activities that examine the position of Muslims and other minorities in Europe. One of the project’s key efforts is this series of reports on Muslim communities in the 11 EU cities of Amsterdam, Antwerp, Berlin, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Leicester, London, Marseille, Paris, Rotterdam, and Stockholm. The reports aim to increase understanding of the needs and aspirations of diverse Muslim communities by examining how public policies in selected cities have helped or hindered the political, social, and economic participation of Muslims. By fostering new dialogue and policy initiatives between Muslim communities, local officials, and international policymakers, the At Home in Europe project seeks to improve the participation and inclusion of Muslims in the wider society while enabling them to preserve the cultural, linguistic, and religious practices that are important to their identities. muslim-rotterdam-incover-publish-101028-OSF:publish.qxd 10/28/2010 1:44 PM
