About this video

Başak Kaval gecekonduların yuttuğu kent kırsallarından, Paris gibi dünya metropollerine şehir planlamada "insan+doğa dostu" ve rejeneratif kentsel planlamanın huzur temelli dönüşümünü TEDx sahnesine taşıyor. Ve Huzur'un bir kentli ve insan hakkı olduğunu savunuyor. ....... Başak Kaval brings the transformation of human+nature friendly and regenerative urban planning based on peace to the TEDx stage, from urban countryside swallowed by slums to world metropolises like Paris, and argues that peace is a right of the city dweller and of humanity. Başak Kaval is a senior urban planner, entrepreneur, and sailor who brings together spatial thinking, entrepreneurship, and civic engagement. She graduated from Dokuz Eylül University’s Department of City and Regional Planning, completed her master’s degree in the same field, and continues her doctoral studies. After beginning her career in the public sector and gaining project coordination experience in the private sector, she founded Kıyı Studio in 2006, where she has led planning, architecture, construction, and consultancy processes through a holistic approach for public institutions, private companies, and investors. She has also taken part in ventures such as Parlons Cafe & Patisserie and Fi Salda Hotel with her family. With academic publications on urbanisation and active roles in a range of civil society organisations, she continues to work at the intersection of city-making, entrepreneurship, and community life.
