Milla Kallio is a co-founder of FEMMA Planning, an urban planning collective specialized in participatory planning. FEMMA Planning studies places and their identities as well as experiences of the residents together with local actors. At the heart of FEMMA Planning's work is a commitment to understanding different urban realities and experiences. The main aim of the agency is to bring other perspectives to the planning process than the purely technical; it’s not enough to know what the experts think, planners and policymakers need to also be aware of the lived experiences of city-dwellers.
