The event was held at the Bogot\u00e1 Chamber of Commerce (CCB). It began by asking\u00a0attendees and speakers alike\u00a0to conceive\u00a0of\u00a0urban lighting as a complex intersectional topic linked to safety, health, light pollution, cultural expression and even the life cycles of non-human animals.<\/p>\n<p>The event included international lighting\u00a0experts, who drew on their professional experiences to contribute to the debate about\u00a0urban lighting. All presentations are available <a title=\"presentaciones del foro Imaginemos la luz\" href=\"http:\/\/www.slideshare.net\/deespacio\/tag\/iluminaci%C3%B3n-urbana\">here<\/a> and the video of the event here.<\/p>\n<p>The event concluded with a panel of recommendations for urban lighting\u00a0in\u00a0Bogot\u00e1,\u00a0in which the\u00a0speakers discussed and presented their views on safety, a lighting master plan for the city and nighttime culture, among other topics. The event was a great success with many attendees\u00a0and\u00a0mentions of the event in several media outlets.<\/p>\n<p>Our sincerest thanks to the Bogot\u00e1 Chamber of Commerce and the\u00a0Hotel Cit\u00e9 Bogot\u00e1 for helping make this event happen. Going forward, we will\u00a0continue to help\u00a0CCB in\u00a0implementing some of the experts&#8217; recommendations. The presentations are:<\/p>\n<p>1.
