Bristol 2050: The peoples plan.
Bristol 2050 is an attempt to use a partipatory process, through a series of open public meetings, to plan a sustainable and fair future for our cities inhabitants.
“The Plan”.
It will simply be a conversation that develops, spawning hundreds of little plans, counter plans and, crucially, actions.
We hope that by looking forward 40 years we can provide a platform for the people of Bristol to come up with some interesting ideas about how we want our city and society to be organised.
We have again reached such a structural crisis. The neoliberal project that has brought us from the 1970′s to 2008 is morally, intellectually and actually bankrupt. We are seeing the collapse of this phase of capitalism.
We don’t know at this stage how the 2050 process is going to develop. It is after all not our process, it is yours.
What we do intend to do is to start the process. We will be holding a series of meetings in the new year to discuss how we can get started.
We are interested to explore if Open Spaces is a good way to get the conversation going.
In the meantime we would be interested to hear your utopian hopes and desires for Bristol 2050. Please email us words, drawings or images to occupybristol@riseup.net
