This PechaKucha Night will bring together diverse groups and perspectives on the theme, "Participatory Design"! Each lightning talk (6 minutes and 40 seconds) will highlight the importance of bringing together many voices to the table for creating quality projects and impactful urban design initiatives.

About PechaKucha

Drawing its name from the Japanese term for the sound of "chit chat", PechaKucha rests on a presentation format that is based on a simple idea: 20 images x 20 seconds. It's a format that makes presentations concise, and keeps things moving at a rapid pace. 

PechaKucha Night was devised in Tokyo in February 2003 as an event for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public. It grew into a massive celebration, with events happening in hundreds of cities around the world, inspiring creatives worldwide.
