Taking Lefebvre’s idea of lived space as its starting point, this proposal aims at bringing together younger and senior residents of culturally and ethnically diverse neighbourhoods in two European cities – Mouraria in Lisbon (Portugal) and Butetown in Cardiff (Wales). They will be invited into communities of practice and learning where they can use their ‘multiple intelligences’ to reflect on ways to improve the appropriation of urban spaces and the preservation of the city’s cultural heritage that will be conveyed through shared humanities-based creative practices.
These intergenerational learning communities will not only advance possibilities of change to neighbourhood spaces, but also intergenerational soft skills, thus promoting capacity building and generating increased confidence and pride as well as a greater sense of place, ownership and belonging. In addition, they will provide more opportunities for people from different age groups and cultural backgrounds to meet and share, thus contributing to shaping/strengthening individual and collective identities in urban spaces through new platforms of respect and dialogue.
