Social Inclusion and Place-Making

The LDP tackles persistent social inequalities through affordable housing, regeneration of contested spaces, and holistic master planning to create a vibrant, attractive, connected and sustainable city that is safe, fair and inclusive for all.

To plan for a city that works for everyone, the LDP will support the opportunity to tackle persistent social inequalities and focuses on areas blighted by 'Peace Walls' and barriers through shared community engagement. The provision of affordable housing, regeneration and connection of contested spaces would help to spread the benefits of a successful city, and secure a safe, fair and inclusive city for all. Place-making has an important role in shaping a distinctive sense of place through good design. Adopting a holistic approach to master planning to shape the regeneration of the city can help to develop a vibrant, attractive, connected and sustainable city.
