Instructors: Tinus Kruger and Macarena Rau

Many CPTED practitioners need to understand the problems and issues of a neighborhood and community, and must find ways to engage the public and to document existing conditions. A number of highly sophisticated methods are available using computers and GIS systems, public hearings, surveys and internet forums. What about more informal methods of engagement and documentation?

This workshop with offer several approaches for improving communication with residents, property owners and businesses. It will also provide some new methods for documenting field work related to architecture and buildings, travel patterns, or other key elements of a CPTED analysis.
