8 80 Cities
8 80 Cities is a non profit organisation bringing citizens together to enhance mobility and public space so that together more vibrant, healthy and equitable communities can be created. This is based on the concept that if everything we do in our cities is great for an 8 year old and an 80 year old, then it will be great for all people. Frustrated by the lack of progress happening in cities both locally and globally, Gil (Guillermo) Penalosa, set out to light a fire under decision-makers and community leaders reluctant to change. He wanted to help cities “move from talking to doing.” especially when it comes to investing in sustainable mobility, parks and public spaces.
