SUMMARY - Shared Public Spaces

Parks, libraries, community centers, transit, and streets are where strangers become neighbors—where diverse residents encounter each other outside the bubbles of work, home, and familiar community. These shared public spaces can be sites of inclusion where newcomers feel welcome, or sites of exclusion where they feel unwanted. How public spaces are designed, programmed, and governed affects whether they serve as commons belonging to all or as territories dominated by some.
