Co-creating Cities and Communities

This project seeks to develop a better understanding of how research collaborations between universities and cities – supported by digital, artistic and creative practice – can re-make life in cities to better meet communities needs.

The main focus of the project was the ‘Co creating Cities and Communities’ event which took place in Bristol on 12-13 July 2017. Organised by the Arts and Humanities Research Council Connected Communities Programme with support from the Urban Living Partnership and the University of Bristol, the event brought together over 200 participants and over 40 collaborative projects to discuss how creative, collaborative, urban research can make a positive difference to cities and communities.
