Resumen

Los procesos participativos y la colaboración interdisciplinar están transformando las disciplinas arquitectónicas. Especialmente en proyectos públicos y colectivos, donde se están empezando a desarrollar sistemas de decisión más democráticos. En un contexto donde cambian las metodologías de trabajo y los roles tradicionales, las universidades interesadas en desarrollar aprendizaje-servicio pueden contribuir a generar conocimiento si se asocian a grupos comunitarios. Utilizando cursos de paisajismo, y siguiendo una metodología de acción participativa, diferentes colaboraciones informan este artículo. En él se explica la adaptabilidad de la metodología aplicada y cómo se intenta dar respuesta a los objetivos de los grupos comunitarios al perseguir la construcción de los proyectos. Esta voluntad práctica y participativa permite a los alumnos aprender nuevos roles y métodos de diseño a través de la experiencia directa. A su vez, los académicos pueden desarrollar nuevos procesos pedagógicos y crear proyectos de investigación tanto entre proyectos como de cada proyecto.

Biografía del autor/a

Carles Martinez-Almoyna Gual, Victoria University of Wellington

Carles Martinez-Almoyna Gual is a Spanish architect and landscape architect. He is interested in research that finds links between practice and academia. Since he arrived to Aotearoa New Zealand in 2014, Carles has focused his research around how to engage with different community groups and local governments. The goal of the research has been to help communities transform their physical environment through partnerships. Following action research methodologies and using participatory processes, Carles fosters change in the physical environment by implementing small scale/temporary projects. He is particularly interested in analysing the impact of those interventions in order to gather applicable knowledge.
