Dreaming of open streets | Marcela Guerrero Casas | TEDxCapeTownCity2.0

Marcela Guerrero Casas: Open streets activist. "Open Streets" celebrates the power of public space, free & safe mobility, and healthy communities. Modeled after Bogota's Ciclovia, it consists of a temporary network of car-free areas and routes throughout the city. Marcela Guerrero Casas is a Cape Town resident and an Open Streets activist. Born and raised in Bogota, Colombia, Marcela grew up riding bicycles around her hometown, Cota, and also on the famous Bogota-ciclovia (a weekly 100Km car-free cycle route around the city). Marcela studied in the United States and has lived in Southern Africa since 2006 working in the development sector. Marcela dreams of Open Streets in Cape Town where residents from all parts of the city congregate and take over the streets to build stronger communities and a more interactive city. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
