Convivencia Urbana
Convivencia Urbana is an urban consultancy founded by Tommi Laitio.
We partner with organizations, which want to get from ‘why’ to ‘how’ in creating public life and places.
“Convivencia is a cooperative state between harmony and open conflict, which emphasizes practice, effort, negotiation, and accommodation. In convivencia, we do not strive to resolve differences but have the capabilities and the willingness for collective action. When we build on friction, we can make wonderful and fair things happen."
— Tommi Laitio
