Abstract

Report to GRE on the PARKE project sustainable city stories. The sustainable city stories project took place in Woolwich in summer 2022 as a Practice as Research Knowledge Exchange (PARKE) pilot project to address the UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 11 ‘Sustainable cities and communities’. Theatre maker Helen Tennison and Dr Marianne Markowski employed a collaborative approach based on walking by involving six participants from different age groups and backgrounds to collect and reflect on sustainability in Woolwich. Participants were first asked to collect their personal observations for sustainability in Woolwich on a specified route by taking photographs and audio recordings. Then on 11th July Ms Tennison and Dr Markowski walked the route together with the six participants, employing prompts from the recordings for discussion and reflecting on the observations made. The group walk ended with a group discussion on the experiences and refreshments at the Bathway Theater. Theatre maker Helen Tennison subsequently used the participants' contributions as an inspiration to create a short film in ‘psychogeographical style’.
