The Big Picture Share an Idea Within 10 weeks of the February earthquake, the Christchurch City Council launched Share an Idea, a public engagement campaign aimed to maximise community involvement in the Central City redevelopment. With about half the buildings in the Central City needing to be demolished, along with much of the heritage which gave the city its international reputation as an English city, it was quickly recognised that the face of Christchurch had changed forever. The level of destruction meant the Central City would need to be completely rebuilt in places, opening up the possibility to rebuild the city to respond to the needs of today’s residents and also those of future generations. While aftershocks continued to rattle the city and its residents were dealing with damaged homes and lack of basic services, the Council asked residents to think about their Central City with the launch of Share an Idea. A website – shareanidea.org.nz – was developed to make it easy for residents to share their ideas whenever it was convenient; at 3pm before the children were home from school, at 1am after they had finished their night shift or at 9pm after completing chores and heading to bed. The website generated more than 58,000 visits during the six weeks it operated, the average length of visit being five minutes and 14 seconds – this compares with just over two minutes for popular sporting websites. Initially the website asked people for their thoughts on how they wanted to move about the Central City, what public spaces and activities they would like to see in the area, the type of businesses they thought were appropriate for the Central City, and what was needed to attract people back to the Central City to live, work and play. As ideas continued to flow in, the website was used to ask targeted questions in the four key areas of move, market, space and life. A two-day Share an Idea Community Expo was also held in May, more than 10,000 residents attended the event. They shared their ideas on Post-it notes, by making a video clip, building their Central City out of Lego, filling out questionnaires, going online and/or leaving a last thought as they left the venue. In addition to the Share an Idea campaign, a series of 10 public workshops were attended by 450 residents, there were drop boxes for ideas at the University of Canterbury and Christchurch Polytechnic and schools were also involved. Ideas were sought through Facebook and Twitter. Share an Idea had a presence on YouTube, through radio and print media with advertising and stories, on television and 160,000 households in Christchurch received the Share an Idea tabloid. E-newsletters were sent weekly to a database of 7000 people during the Share an Idea phase. A total of 106,000 ideas were shared during the six week campaign – that is one idea from every 2.2 residents. Share an Idea generated a level of community involvement that has never been seen before in New Zealand. Share an Idea showed the passion Greater Christchurch and the global community had for Christchurch and the Central City; the response was overwhelming, highlighting the commitment by everyone to make Christchurch a great city again. This commitment will be critical as work begins to redevelop the Central City during the next 10 to 20 years. More than 100 stakeholder meetings were also held during this period, including one-off meetings with individual organisations, weekly meetings with business representatives and various workshop-type gatherings to formulate ideas. Key stakeholders have played a critical role in working with Council to identify the key activities and projects to revitalise the Central City. During this phase of idea sharing, these stakeholders have had an equally important role in helping to define the key issues for the long-term redevelopment of the Central City. Feedback also came through from professional institutes, various interest groups and from numerous conversations in the community. This included the 48-hour Challenge, a key engagement opportunity for professional bodies to share their ideas on the redevelopment of the Central City. Elements from these entries have been used to inform the development of the Central City Plan.
