Hello! My name is Edna. I am an award-winning
urban analyst, consultant, researcher, and author living in France. I am
an expert on public spaces, focusing on feelings of insecurity of
vulnerable and marginalized populations (women, children, immigrants).
I
have collaborated with European and American municipalities, NGOs,
researchers, and universities with the goal of improving security in
public spaces.
Wanting to
further the impact of my work as a researcher, I founded CITY CITÉ
CIUDAD, a consulting agency to help urban actors make public spaces more
safe, inclusive, and humane..
My work as a
researcher and an entrepreneur ranges from high-quality scientific
publications to interactive art installations and film. My goal is to
take research out of the lab and to be an agent of positive change in
cities around the world. My work has been published and shared in
platforms such as the Fondazione Feltrinelli, Oxford Urbanists, the
Journal of Public Spaces, the International CPTED Association, and
Réflexions Immobilières.
I'm
looking for opportunities to collaborate with urban actors on
international innovative projects to improve security in cities.
