In this first episode of our mini-series Reflecting on Waterden Green: Power, Place, and Participation, Kuljeet is joined by former colleagues from the London Legacy Development Corporation; Ruth Lin Wong Holmes, Jen Anderson, and Nigel Dexter, to explore the story behind a groundbreaking public realm project in Queen Elizabth Olympic Park, East London. Waterden Green is more than just a new green space for teenage girls; it’s a bold experiment in co-creation, where young women were empowered as co-clients to shape the brief, design, and decisions from the ground up.
