The visioning exercise is presented as a participatory dialogue about a preferable future city between 97 people
from 77 different organizations of 8 sectors. Each of the visioning workshops lasted for around 115 minutes and was
structured in 4 phases: i)describing changes in the sector over the last 50 years, ii)describing the worst case scenario
for the city of the future, iii) defining the future Liveable city, iv) designing the future Liveable city. For this
dialogue the exercise was left deliberately open to prevent constraining the thinking by the existing city. However,
given the difficulty of imagining a future completely disconnected from the reality, the visioning exercises are
tacitly contextualized in London and UK cities, where the workshops were conducted. Nonetheless, because of the
transversal analysis created to construct the dialogue between sectors, the results are indeed an exercise removed
from reality as they represent a conversation that did not take place. Table 1 presents the summary of the
workshops’ participants.
