Bratislava 2030

Bratislava 2030 is an accompanying publication of the city's strategic plan (city development program) Bratislava 2030, which was approved by the city council in June 2022. It introduces its readers to the structure of the plan, summarizes the goals and programs that will be a priority for the city in the coming years in a simpler language and in a more accessible form. The richness of the plan is illustrated by accompanying artifacts of daily life from the past and future. The notes that you will find throughout the publication also refer to the document in full, whether it is the chapters that we used as a basis for the creation, or the specific goals that we illustrate in the publication.

Nepredať! Zveľadiť!

Restless Cities: Lessons from Central Europe

Restless Cities: Lessons from Central Europe is a publication that reflects a year-long training programme of the Prague office of the Heinrich- Böll-Foundation focusing on understanding the political aspects of urban planning in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. It consists of four thematic chapters that offer introductions into each topic, short texts by selected invited experts, participants' views, and key learnings about sustainability and politics. The authors of the texts are not just the experts who con- tributed to the training programme, but also the participants themselves share their learnings and views herein. We hope this book will help readers to understand the o en-invisible areas where urban planning moves from the realm of expertise-only into the realm of political action and that it will inspire readers to further politi- cal learning and engagement.
