Inclusive Australasian cityscapes

Content Partner: Lincoln University. The lands on which Australasian cities were built have always been Indigenous places. Colonists were previously disinterested in providing for Indigenous values in these space. As Indigenous groups find and fight for opportunities to be visible in these contested cityscapes. New innovations enabled by communities of culture and practice are finding greater voice to achieve more ecologically sustainable practices. This paper highlights strategies and policies for reconciling cityscapes for more inclusive healthy relationships between people and the environment. It identifies process-based exemplars from co-design to Indigenous practice and practice-based research, strategies and policies for transformative outcomes in Australasian cities.
