Dress Rehearsal: Ephemeral Urbanism, Participation, the City and Food Sustainability
Food waste threatens the sustainability of our planet. This paper aims to explain, through references to the project Dress Rehearsal, which took place in Barcelona in 2016, how ephemeral design can showcase and promote environmental change. Specifically, how certain tactical, temporary, and participative urban planning actions permit, through the strategic capacity of design, to ‘rehearse’ how a city could behave in coherence with the challenges posed by our current food production and consumption system.
