In this context it is particularly noteworthy that this gap between what normative planning theory advocates and the planning practice is often rooted in circumstances that can be changed, if the right concept of participatory urban planning is applied. In ‘New Approaches to Urban Planning’, Liisa Horelli, Sirkku Wallin, Karoliina Jarenko, Jenni Kuoppa, and Joanna Saad-Sulonen address this gap and offer an innovative perspective of citizen participation (participation as self-organization different from the traditional staged participation). In particular, the authors examine two planning approaches that have not been extensively used in Finland, namely Participatory e-Planning (the use of ICTs in urban planning to foster citizen participation, including also participation in the design and use of digital tools and media content) and Time Planning (planning focused on the time schedules and spatio-temporal organization of people’s actions). They do this based on several experiences of innovative citizen participation at the neighborhood level in Finland, some of which have been studied for more than a decade in the context of an action- research program in one neighborhood of Helsinki. The authors rightly claim that, due to its extreme complexity, the transformation of urban space is the result of planning decisions and of other processes including the self-organization of different social groups and networks. Since urban problems are so complex, they cannot be solved by urban planning alone, requiring instead an active citizen engagement in the planning process. For that reason, the challenge is to find the 7 appropriate ways of engaging citizens, policy makers, planners and other stakeholders in the co-production of solutions for the everyday life of the local community including the use of community informatics. In a way, this book highlights the complex nature of the challenges confronting citizen participation in urban planning and offers insights on how citizen participation can produce more relevant impacts in the city and in the welfare of local communities. As a book, it is distinctive in its core focus: the local co-governance approach applied to urban planning. This alone would provide a justification to recommend this scholarly contribution. But I can see at least two other reasons to acclaim this book. First, the authors make us understand the importance of multiple participation and co-creation in urban planning as well as in the design of the technology that supports it. Second the book offers descriptions of what works in the field of participatory e-planning and in time planning, based on real cases, even though they are taken from the Finnish cultural and social contexts. Last but not least, the book offers details of these participatory experiences that will certainly be of interest to the reader. By recognizing this crucial link between the nature and roles assigned to citizen participation and the outcomes of the planning process, the book ‘New Approaches to Urban Planning’ is an important addition to the ongoing debate in the field of citizen participation in urban planning and in the field of planning theory. Although written from a Finish standpoint it is not intended and is not only relevant for a Finnish readership, but will certainly prove helpful to other European and non-European researchers, students, planners and to networks of self-organized citizens. Carlos Nunes Silva Institute of Geography and Spatial Planning University of Lisbon PART I INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTIOIN I PART 1 Starting points Liisa Horelli and Sirkku Wallin The rapidly changing urban environment bewilders citizens and challenges political decision-makers as well as administrators. The transformation of urban functions and infrastructure is taking place at different levels and varying time-scales. For example, the growing population of the Helsinki Metropolitan Region means that authorities are compelled to produce public services in large centralised units which, in turn, make the everyday life of citizens living in their neighbourhoods less resilient. The planning of public services and urban space ignores the local level where they will actually be used. This means that functional networks begin to differ from territorial ones, leading to deplorable consequences for the local infrastructure of everyday life. This is not the case only in Finland, but in many European cities as well (Majoor & Salet, 2008). However, the city still has a variety of territorial layers. The materiality of urban functions and the everyday life of a city’s inhabitants are highly intertwined with and even dependent on their neighbourhood. Thus, citizens often have the motivation and the potential to participate in shaping their environment as part of territorial behaviour.1 Such environmental transactions need not necessarily be conspicuous measures: they can 1 Human territorial behaviour refers to the tendency by a person or a group to control or own an object or a place for social (identity, status, stability, family, community) or physical (caring for children, security, cultivation) reasons. It can be seen as building fences, personalizing one´s own or the communal house, and by participation in neighbourhood improvement and community development (Altman & Chemers, 1984, 121; Horelli, 1981). 1 Liisa Horelli and Sirkku Wallin – Starting Points 11 take place, for instance, in the practice of walking (see Kuoppa, Chapter 5). Nevertheless, the supportive infrastructure of everyday life is of utmost importance for ensuring the involvement of local citizens in community development. Infrastructure refers here to the physical, functional and participatory structures that local citizens can appropriate and transform into a supportive culture to provide a place-based identity and sense of community (see Chapter 4 by Horelli). Such structural props encourage citizens’ self-organisation and creativity in a variety of forms, such as pop-up restaurants, new public spaces and dwelling types, as well as through on-line digital settings developed by local inhabitants. In Helsinki an ever growing enthusiasm for this has been witnessed recently (Kopomaa, 2011; Mäenpää, 2011; Botero et al., 2012). The problem is that the traditional, centralised and top-down urban planning which is still current in many European countries, including Finland, does not yet recognise the significance of genuine citizen participation, nor the

  • Improving Urban Planning in Africa
    Improving Urban Planning in Africa By: ERIC JAFFE | NOV 22, 2011 http://www.theatlanticcities.com/design/2011/11/improving-urban-planning-africa/549/ Urbanization is growing at an incredible pace in the global south, but urban planning isn't keeping up. Many planning schools in Africa still promote ideas transferred from the global north. (The master plan of Lusaka, in Zambia, for instance, was based on the concept of the garden city.) As a result, these programs often fail to prepare planners for the problems they will encounter in African cities, such as rapid growth, poverty, and informality — that is, people who pursue livelihoods outside formal employment opportunities. In 2008 the Association of African Planning Schools, a network of 43 institutions that train urban planners, began a three-year effort to reform planning education on the continent. Nancy Odendaal, project coordinator for A.A.P.S. and a planning professor at the University of Cape Town, in South Africa, offers a progress report on this effort in an upcoming issue of the journal Cities. "In order to confront the urbanisation pressures on the continent in all its unique dimensions," she writes, "fundamental shifts are needed in the materials covered in urban training programs and in the methods used to prepare practitioners." Odendaal recently answered some questions about what these shifts entail, and what they might mean for the future of Africa's cities. The aim of A.A.P.S. is to help urban planners in Africa respond to the "special circumstances" of African urbanization, according to your paper. Broadly speaking, what would those be? African urbanization does not follow the "conventional" patterns of industrialization and concomitant job creation in the North, where rapid urban growth was first experienced.

    Aleksi Tapio Analysing residential real estate investments in Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences Bachelor of Business Administration European Business Administration Bachelor’s Thesis 29.04.2019 Abstract Author Aleksi Tapio Title Analysing residential real estate investments in Helsinki Number of Pages 35 pages + 2 appendices Date 29 April 2019 Degree Bachelor of Business Administration Degree Programme European Business Administration Instructor/Tutor Daryl Chapman, Senior Lecturer Real estate is a commonly used investment vehicle. However, due to residential real estate’s heterogeneous market, picking a good deal is hard and participating can be scary due to its capital intensiveness. The investor has to understand the market and know how to conduct and analysis. The paper addresses the fundamentals of investing in Helsinki under the Finnish legislation. Helsinki has grown as a city for the past years. Evaluating the city’s growth opportunities wields the investors with confidence on the cyclical real estate market. The market analysis will also show the differences between the locations within Helsinki, opening up potential for investors of many kind. When looking at the process of analysing, the research in this paper focuses the whole spectrum of it: which tools can be used to save time, how to correctly calculate returns and risks and what are the downfalls and benefits of the calculations. The methodology of hedging risks in real estate investing will cover the common fears such as rising interest rate, and will discuss the use of real estate as a hedge against inflation. The paper uses public data sources for comparative data analysis to find variables which affect the price, and draw conclusions according to the data.

  • Resident Accounts of Mellunmäki
    Tiedekunta/Osasto Fakultet/Sektion – Laitos Institution – Department Faculty Department of Social Research Faculty of Social Sciences TekijäFörfattare – Author Mika Hyötyläinen Työn nimi Arbetets titel – Title Resident Accounts of Mellunmäki Territorial Stigma Explored in a Helsinki Lähiö Oppiaine Läroämne – Subject Social policy / Urban studies Työn laji Arbetets art Aika Datum – Month Sivumäärä Sidoantal – Number of pages – Level and year 93 Master’s thesis May 2013 Tiivistelmä Referat – Abstract This thesis studies the negative labeling of a neighborhood or territorial stigmatization in a residential suburb of Helsinki called Mellunmäki. The purpose of this thesis is to find out whether a territorial stigma features in local residents accounts of the area. The theoretical framework for this thesis is drawn from Loic Wacquant’s idea of a territorial stigma. Wacquant proposes that a negative label or a stigma easily becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, when the residents of stigmatized areas begin to look for ways of distancing from their neighbors and begin to blame neighbors for the area’s alleged hardships. Another theoretical tool to better study the topic in the Finnish context is drawn from previous research on media depictions of Finnish residential suburbs or lähiös through recent decades.
