An inclusive, web-based, and open source software platform for collaborative data collection that facilitates the citizen participation.

Engaging and understanding communities affected by urban development leads to better planning decisions and improved social outcomes. As a tool for public participation, Citizen Voice opens a channel for citizens to voice their experiences, needs, and aspirations. Citizen Voice provides the opportunity for citizen involvement from the early phase to the follow-up phase of urban development projects.

This toolkit is designed to help cities and organisations support the socio-techncial transitions needed to achieve climate targets drawing on participatory urban planning and design. It provides a checklist covering the key stages of stakeholder engagement, from planning through to evaluation and has been developed as part of the UP2030 project.

Each item on the checklist can be expanded to reveal tools and resources relevant to that step in the process.

 > *Please note: this toolkit should be used once your initial aim has been set and communicated to your team, and it assumes that you have assessed the feasibility of the project. Stakeholder engagement should happen throughout the project, in all its stages; however, this toolkit mainly focuses on the identification of needs, barriers and drivers for change, and on co-creating shared visions.

This publication introduces the Spatial Justice Conceptual Model (SJCM) as an unpacking and a supportive application of the concept of Spatial Justice. The SJCM conceptualises Spatial Justice by defining applicable components for each justice dimension (Recognition, Procedural, and Distributive). When approached as an analytical framework, it allows for a structured and comprehensive way of assessing how aspects of spatial justice are considered in planning and design, while drawing attention to the underlying components that build each dimension.
