1. Linking participatory learning and knowledge management to urban resilience: introducing the Chance2Sustain programme Isa Baud University of Amsterdam

2. Issues in city growth and sustainble development Large economic projects currently a preferred strategy in city competitiveness What does this do to environmental sustainability? What is the impact on social inequalities? How can participatory knowledge management contribute to more resilient urban development? urban governance as essential context

3. Main focus of project how governments and citizens in cities with different patterns of economic growth use participatory spatial knowledge management towards more resilient sustainable development Comparing variety of political and economic conditions in fast-growing cities Comparing inclusive social strategies and environmental approaches and practices conducive to SD Develop model on participatory spatial knowledge management in urban governance contributing to SD ten cities across four countries (India, South Africa, Peru and Brazil) Methodology: city case studies, including inter-active knowledge building with local communities, practitioners

4. Learning from resilience thinking Resilient development= development that creates, enables and sustain services and institutions, generating new opportunities for residents,.. (Dodman 2010). Not necessarily ‘bouncing back’ if situation was very unequal Resilience: system redundancy, diversity, flexibility (not locked in pathways), multi-level links (landscape, regions, ecosystems), supporting self-organizing capacity

6. Participatory knowledge management: instrument to increase adaptive capacity Recognizing different types of knowledge – tacit, practice-based, community-based, codified, scientific Analyzing knowledge generation through participatory processes – setting priorities and their criteria and recognizing it as political process Analyzing ‘ spaces’ : invited, negotiated, claimed Participatory spatial mapping – reflecting spatial diversity, concentrations, relations and realities
