"Feet on the ground, window to the sky" is a mini-documentary that brings to light the importance of the protagonism of youth in the process of planning, elaboration and decision making related to urban designs. Through the story of Yasmin Bernardo, a young resident of a community in Ibura, Recife (Pernambuco), it is possible to access, at the same time, a critical perspective of the reality she lives in, as well as creative and inventive ways to overcome limitations imposed by social inequalities, urban violence, among other elements that prevent young people like her from fully experiencing what the city has to offer. The documentary is the result of the Designing Public Spaces Workshop held by UN-Habitat in December 2021, when young people from Ibura discussed the challenges and desires for public spaces in the community.
