Led by Monique Suksmaningsih, the commission has included developing a set of replicable design standards and urban design guidelines to regenerate Dolly and help support the local community through skills and entrepreneurship training with a specific focus on gender inclusiveness and supporting the most vulnerable in the community.

Through a series of interventions, the project aims to mend the dislocation of Dolly from the rest of Surabaya and create reasons for people to go to Dolly and the infrastructure to support new visitors to the district.

This includes supporting the micro businesses that already flourish within Dolly, harnessing generations of expertise in industries such as Batique and the manufacture of shoes and slippers and creating a social and physical infrastructure that promotes a more sustainable future for everybody.
