Reflecting & Evaluating

Reflective practice is the ability to reflect on an action, so as to learn from a situation and inform future decisions. In critical urban practice, such reflection is needed throughout the process of engagement with a site, an issue, a group of residents, or a network of practitioners, to continually question how we position ourselves and to determine the relevance and level of achievement of our engagement with others. Reflecting is a collaborative and iterative process that requires us to acknowledge that projects should be continually evolving, rather than striving for fixed results.
