Hij houdt van gesprekken die ergens over gaan, van plannen die werken voor mensen, en van buurten waar iedereen zich thuis kan voelen. Osman kijkt graag vooruit \u2013 het liefst samen en met beide voeten in de praktijk.<\/strong><br><br><strong>Osman Karaarslan is geboren en getogen in Gorinchem. <\/strong>De schoonheid van de stad, de menselijke maat, de kracht van buurten \u2013 hij kreeg het met de paplepel ingegoten. Geworteld en meer; Osman wil bijdragen aan \u2018zijn\u2019 stad.<br><br>Een jong gezin dat geen betaalbaar huis kan vinden. Een buurt waarin mensen zich onveilig beginnen te voelen of elkaar niet meer kennen. Initiatieven van bewoners die iets in gang zetten, maar die nog niet altijd worden gehoord. Dit soort vraagstukken vormen zijn drijfveer \u2013 zoals hij al eerder ervaarde als fractie-assistent, en nu opnieuw. Geen politiek met grote woorden, maar de bereidheid om \u00e9cht te luisteren, te verbinden en het gesprek concreet te maken.<br><br>In zijn dagelijks werk als projectmanager gebiedsontwikkeling bij de gemeente Utrecht helpt hij mee aan het realiseren van buurten met woningen, scholen, werkplekken en ruimte voor ontmoeting. Geen blauwdrukken van bovenaf, maar plannen die werken voor mensen. Leefbaarheid, gezondheid en sociale samenhang lopen daar als een rode draad doorheen. Die blik neemt hij mee in zijn rol als campagneleider in Gorinchem.<br><br><em>Wat hij doet? Meedenken, aanscherpen, aanjagen.<br>En ook: zichtbaar zijn. Als campagneleider ga je Osman vast nog tegenkomen.
