Wild Streets: Empowering citizens to design greener places

Imagine adding a few trees to your street, a public space, a few benches, maybe a bike rack. You may find it easy to envision your urban transformation, or at least know who to call to make that sketch. But how can the average citizen participate in the design process? That’s the question Ascha Lychett Pedersen is answering with her big app idea, Wild Streets. A macroeconomist and UN sustainability specialist, Lychett Pedersen, CEO of Wild Streets, had been working for the UN for a decade when she got the idea that would become Wild Streets.
