Engaging decision makers for an urban underground future
Highlights 100years on from the first ideas on urban underground space, project still seem to struggle. Often the politicians are seen as the ones preventing these projects. Engaging decision makers is an approach that is advocated. Decision makers are taken to be all stakeholders rather than just those elected to office. Only when this coalition of stakeholders is engaged will an urban underground future become reality.
Abstract This paper will look into the topic of how decision makers can be engaged in the development of urban underground space. It will ask the question whether it is the decision makers we need to focus on, or if the development of urban underground space involves further stakeholders. The paper will look at the way the ITA Committee of Underground Space has worked in advocating underground space for the past 8years. The question will also be asked where we stand 100years on from the first advocates of underground urbanism.
