GUTS吉人吉事終於面世！#GUTSisReady
籌備了幾個月，GUTS吉人吉事終於面世！
【關於GUTS吉人吉事 | About GUTS】
「GUTS吉人吉事」是一個資源分享的創新平台，透過分享世界各地及本地案例，向公眾推廣地方營造的概念，一起從日常生活入手，活用城市中的閒置資源及空間。
在人煙稠密的城市，每一吋空間都彌足珍貴。當我們苦惱缺乏資源及空間的時候，只要認真細看周遭環境，便能發現其實有不少閒置的空間及資源，例如空置的店舖、公園及土地等。雖然這些地方容易讓人感到死寂，在活化計劃時難以重生，但我們希望用積極的態度去正視這個問題。
若然我們能夠建立一個平台，啓發公眾一起去思考每個閒置資源及空間的可能性，將能有效把閒置資源分配到有需要的人手上。我們相信善用空間資源是推動城市設計及規劃的重要元素，在千絲萬縷的社會問題下，我們可透過學習世界各地活用閒置資源的案例，思考每個活化空間資源的新方法。
我們期待每個星期和你分享的吉事！
We are delighted to introduce GUTS to you!
“GUTS” stands for “Generative Utilization & Transformation of Spaces”. We aim to promote the better use of underutilized resources in our city, focusing on People, Time, Day, Shop and Places at different scales and physical settings. It is a knowledge sharing platform to empower the citizens to learn from international and local advocates.
Our city has advanced through building with density. Sharing the same struggle with other developed cities, density has created a tight supply of resources. Yet, idling resources can be spotted across the city, especially in districts awaiting regeneration. We have learnt to develop fast, we forgot to learn to develop wisely and effectively with the neighbourhood. Idling resources, which can be a shop, a pocket park or a piece of land, have caused significant negative impact on community development. Vacancy of space breaks the connection between the people in a neighbourhood which requires tens of years to be rebuilt. The third spaces in our city have more potential that we could have imagined if we start to take a different step with the community.
The mission of GUTS is to take on a positive approach to look at the issue of idling resources by creating a platform for inspiration and knowledge-sharing. Everyone is the future city builder and every one of us can initiate activation of spaces around us. From the many global case studies we are going to mention, the scale of resources is not the determining factor of the success of activation. GUTS team believes that each tiny resource could make a change and inject positive movement in the planning of our city.
