It analyses the various digital tools that support dialogue and exchange between various urban local communities in the field of placemaking. The workshop on the one hand secures the theoretical frames, on the other hand it also discusses the involvement of such methods as the "peer-to-peer" approach.

Not only will there be possible tools introduced by various experts but also the needs and interests of local community members will be taken into consideration by integrating the voices of urban activists, community members, NGOs and artists.
Workshop 2 - Selection and Curation. This Workshop will focus on the selection of content for the digital platform that supports transfer of urban knowledge and best-practices regarding placemaking and dialogue between the communities.
