  • SDG Story: Reggio Emilia

    Where are we coming from? The city profile.

    Reggio Emilia is renowned in educational circles, with the philosophy known as the “Reggio Emilia Approach”; for pre-school and primary school children developed in the city shortly after World War II. At the same time, contemporary art, ancient monuments, and exhibitions such as Fotografia Europea have made the city rich in culture and social change —supported by the business community, services and the university. The city is connected by high-speed train to Milan, Bologna and Florence, and is within 45 minutes’ reach to all those cities. Reggio is the city of relations with Africa, the city of cycle paths and of Parmigiano Reggiano.

  • Working together for Ideal Park

    The phrase ‘a choir is made up of many different voices’ has certainly been true in Bordesley Green – and the choir was in full fettle yesterday (Tuesday 8th March)!

     

    The focus on this attention was the Ideal Park, just off the Bordesley Green Road – a slightly overlooked green space that is extremely important to the local community.  And it was this week, that things are really getting moving!

  • Procurar sociedades justas através do voluntariado!

    As cidades que enfrentam atualmente necessidades sociais multidimensionais emergentes, tais como cuidados de idosos e crianças, isolamento social e depressão, desemprego e pobreza, para apenas mencionar algumas, precisam de desenvolver políticas inovadoras através da criação de processos coletivos de aprendizagem baseados no intercâmbio e na aprendizagem entre pares. Esta é a mudança de política que a rede Volunteering Cities+ está a desenvolver, apoiada pela metodologia URBACT!
