16. People, place and nature – Part 3

Summary

Will Sandy, Landscape Designer and Founder of the Edible Bus Stop initiative, discusses his recent work across Venezuela, where he explored ways of positively transforming neighbourhoods through public space interventions. Caracas  in Venezuela is a city of contrasts, urban and rural, formal and informal, divided by physical and psychological barriers. Among the issues that currently affect the city are the decrease in public spaces for leisure and entertainment, risk of violence, compounded by the dense population and deficiency of services.
