These walks helped residents to explore resident-empowered meeting-places and activities in their own housing environment for the benefit of community living-quality for themselves and others all spirited by Jane Jacobs her thoughts. These walks can methodological be seen as a form action-research by which the participating residents analyze their own data of experiences and insights.

Jane Jacobs and creative cities
No full textIn February 2007, I published a short review of the biography Jane Jacobs: Urban Visionary, in the Dutch weekly Intermediair. It began as follows: “The Jacobses are a close-knit, productive family. The most famous at this moment is perhaps my cousin Marc, chief designer for Louis Vuitton. My uncles Aad and Georges made a career for themselves in Dutch and Belgian business circles. The name of great-uncle Edgard P. might ring a bell among comic strip fans as the author of the renowned Blake & Mortimer series. But the one I’m most proud of is my American-Canadian great-aunt Jane who died last year.” I thought I had laid it on so heavily that nobody would believe that I was related to all these famous Jacobses.

Jacobs schrijversvrienden
No full textSinds 2001 wordt jaarlijks een schrijver uitgenodigd om gedurende een periode van twee maanden het gastschrijverschap aan de Technische Universiteit Delft te vervullen. De TU Delft organiseert het gastschrijverschap in samenwerking met Verstegen & Stigter culturele projecten. Het gastschrijverschap begint met een openbaar openingscollege. Vervolgens geeft de schrijver een masterclass die uitsluitend toegankelijk is voor studenten van de TU Delft. Ter afsluiting houdt de gastschrijver de openbare Vermeerlezing, waarbij de resultaten van de masterclass gepresenteerd worden. Studenten die de gehele masterdass hebben doorlopen, krijgen een certificaat uitgereikt door de rector magnificus en de gastschrijver. Op 8 januari 2010 droeg Jacob Fokkema de rectorsfakkel over aan zijn opvolger Karel Luyben. Daarmee kwam tevens een eind aan Jacobs betrokkenheid bij het Delftse gastschrijverschap. Verstegen & Stigter heeft al Jacobs Schrijversvrienden gevraagd een persoonlijk woord op papier te zetten. Dit boekje is het resultaat. Een hommage aan Jacob Fokkema, als geschreven blijk van dank voor zijn bezield gastheerschap op de TU Delft
