We are please to share on our channels about the Data for Policy Conference 2022, which is upcoming shortly in a three-regions model this year, taking place in three cities worldwide during three different days.

The Conference, now in its seventh edition, is a premier global forum for multiple disciplinary and cross-sector discussions around the theories, applications and implications of data science innovation in governance and the public sector. If you are into these topics, you still have a few days left to register for the Data for Policy Conference 2022 at this link https://lnkd.in/eqM-3Xes (Deadline 15 November).

The Data for Policy team are busy preparing for December's three-region conference.

Meanwhile uses are on the rise across Europe. Vacant buildings, empty lots, and unused spaces are becoming the object of temporary use as sites for co-creative experimentation. However, implementing temporary uses is sometimes difficult, e.g. for a couple of legal considerations or regulatory barriers.

On May 6th we will organize the webinar “Enabling Regulation for Temporary Use”, bringing together experts from different European cities to share a conversation regarding instruments, processes, and understandings of how the possibilities of ‘meanwhile’ foster the positive effects of temporary urbanism.

During this workshop, we will specifically address the following questions:
• How do cities enable temporary use to enhance urban regeneration?
• How can city administrations develop capacities to use temporary urbanism?
• What are the possible directions for enabling temporary use regulation?
