Gehl Institute

Our mission: transform the way cities are shaped by making public life an intentional driver for design, policy, and governance.

This is an incredible resource for any municipality, planning firm, or even civic activists. And now it’s free.

Nice! ⚡️

So excited about this! I have been working as a Data Fellow to open source the Protocol and it's open now! 🎉

The repo includes guides and sample data to help people measure public life and make better decisions for cities. And learn from each other!

Outdoor, urban education + public life research = 💫 We hope it's the first of many workshops applying public life observation tools from @gehlinstitute with the kids of @pononyc

Getting ready to lead a workshop for kids in Harlem on mixing quant and qual data to design inclusive public spaces 💜 Thanks @gehlinstitute for making these tools so kid friendly!

We weighed in on the creation of this report in the early stages. Thanks @gehlinstitute and @RWJF! https://t.co/8V2ASVuw4x

[WIEGO @WIEGOGLOBAL]
