Tools
At STIPO we don't just work on projects, we also like to translate our knowledge into useful tools for creating better cities. Our work is open source to inform and inspire others. Conversely, others have also translated knowledge and experience into tools for everyone to use. See more of this on the Placemaking Europe knowledge platform by clicking the red button.
We challenge everyone to get started with one of the tools themselves by using the accompanying manuals. Here we explain everything how you can get started with a group of stakeholders and process and guarantee the results of the tool.
Our work is therefore not covered by copyright but under the Creative Commons License. With this you are free to share and edit our work under the condition of attribution and share equally under the same conditions.
