Tactical Urbanismo reaches Trinidad and Tobago

Implementation of tactical urbanism actions took place in Chaguanas, Trinidad and Tobago, from July 31 to August 7, 2023. The Longdenville neighborhood was the selected scenario, and the following spaces were intervened: the basketball court, the playground, the outdoor gym, the façade of the Longdenville community center and the common area for meals. The community actively participated; more than 50 men and women from Cuba, Venezuela, Colombia, Spain, Guatemala, Chile and Trinidad and Tobago were part of this final phase of the implementation. Benches and metal structures with polyshades were installed at the playground; the basketball court was painted; the outdoor gym had a fresh coat of paint; the facade of the Longdenville Community Center was painted and benches, tables, and shades were installed in the common eating area.

This implementation of tactical urbanism was marked by multiculturalism, interraciality, and joy. Today the inhabitants of the Longdenville neighborhood are having suitable spaces for integration, inclusion, solidarity and union.
