Focus on... Protecting public spaces | | | |
| |
| |
Gathering various crime prevention and security stakeholders from all over Europe, the conference focused on how we can better anticipate and respond to security threats in public spaces, and the challenges and tools available to promote citizens' participation in securing and managing public spaces.
It also offered an interesting angle on the challenges linked to monitoring and evaluating safety and crime prevention in public spaces with an introduction to the Urban Safety Monitor and a Global Goals perspective. | |

Building a common culture of the security of public spaces
Through the Secu4All project, Efus and its partners contributed to reinforcing the capacities of local stakeholders involved in the management of public spaces who are as diverse as are their competences and the risks and threats likely to impact public spaces.

The training platform is available to any local authority wishing to upgrade their skills in public space protection. | |

Focus on... The gendered approach to security | | | |
| |
| |
| |
"A safety walk aims to have us attach conscious meaning to our experiences. [...] Some of the risks and discomforts identified [...] can quite easily be addressed by routine action by the municipality, changing the nature of a particular space from feeling unsafe to being welcoming and safe." | | | |
| |
Focus on... The city at night | | | |
>> Join us on 28 June for our web conference 'The City at Night' on how to develop innovative and participatory solutions to understand the specific nature of night-time uses, manage public spaces and improve residents’ feelings of security at night. | |
| |
| |
| |
Focus on... Re-thinking, re-engineering and adapting tools and methodologies | | | |
Efus and its partners in the IcARUS project will meet on 4-5 July in Paris for a workshop. The project's six associated cities will present the tools they have developed to tackle their priority urban security issues.
