Developing an applied soundscape approach: mapping the stakeholder engagement process in the City of Brighton and Hove, UK

摘要

"Sounding Brighton", is a collaborative project pioneered in the United Kingdom since 2010 by the Noise Abatement Society, the City of Brighton and Hove, and The University of Sheffield. The programme is exploring practical approaches towards better soundscapes and provides the opportunity to raise awareness and promote communication about soundscapes among the general public, stakeholders and those involved in policy, including encouraging improving local soundscape quality in urban spaces used for pedestrian walkways, art, entertainment, and restorative activities. Crucially, the project is working to provide opportunities to demonstrate how an applied soundscape approach might contribute to local planning and environmental improvement as part of a citywide engagement process. This paper reports on further work to develop the programme by mapping the stakeholder engagement process.
