The Lean Urbanism Movement

The Lean Urbanism Movement is an approach to city planning that emphasizes flexible, community-driven development. It advocates for small, quick, and cost-effective projects to improve urban spaces instead of lengthy, large-scale plans. By empowering local communities, Lean Urbanism encourages participation in making neighborhoods more livable and vibrant through initiatives like pop-up parks, street markets, and improved walkability. The movement seeks to make cities more resilient and responsive to the needs of residents, fostering collaboration among citizens, businesses, and local governments to enhance urban life in a practical and sustainable way.
