“Transforming Cities, Transforming Lives”
“Transforming Cities, Transforming Lives.”
exhibition by The Aga Khan Trust for Culture
an exhibition of 27 regeneration projects from nine countries that demonstrate how culture can have a positive impact well beyond conservation--illustrating ways the continued existence of old places contributes to people’s sense of well-being and their capacity to flourish. These projects promote good governance, growth of civil society, rise in incomes and economic opportunities, greater respect for human rights, and better stewardship of the environment—even in the poorest and most remote areas of the globe. While some projects are completed, those that remain in progress go beyond mere technical restoration to address the questions of social and environmental context, adaptive re-use, institutional sustainability, and training.
