  • The Hidden Garden: Nature, Culture and Art in Siena

    The Hidden Garden (il Giardino Nascosto) is a peri-urban regeneration project led by the Siena Art Institute that aims to revitalize a previously abandoned wooded area, adjacent to the medieval walls of the italian city of Siena, in Tuscany, and located in a 'border' zone between the inner order of urban space and the spontaneity of nature outside. Unlike more traditional gardens, this is a living ecosystem that evolves over time, adapting to human presence and welcoming human experiences, in a relationship of continuous exchange.

  • “Jupike jala”: reducing traffic and encouraging walking in Tartu municipality, by Tõnis Tõnissoo

    Tartu municipality is a partner of the URBACT network Beyond the Urban. Together with colleagues from diferent urban areas around the Europe and inspired by their experiences, we are looking for solutions to our mobility challenges. One important goal is to reduce the use of private cars for short trips. Success in this area can lead to lower air pollution, smaller environmental impact, a more pleasant urban environment, and increased physical activity for residents, promoting healthier lives and more resilient community.
