  • Mesta mestom: Umetniška četrt v Celju

    V zadnjih desetletjih so tudi v Sloveniji v porastu umetniške iniciative, ki pogosto naseljujejo zapuščene in degradirane prostore. Te ne le ponovno odpirajo prostore skupnosti, temveč pomagajo tudi oblikovati organizacijske in socialne strukture, ki prej na območju niso bile prisotne. Redkejši
    so primeri, kjer pobuda za oživitev praznih in degradiranih prostorov s kreativnimi vsebinami pride »od zgoraj« in je postavljena v sisteme
    upravljanja lokalne oblasti. V Celju je bila tako občina tista, ki se je odločila ponuditi prazne objekte v najem celjskim umetnikom, kar je vodilo v osnovanje umetniške četrti, ki je sčasoma postala vozlišče in zatočišče ustvarjalcev različnih kreativnih dejavnosti.

  • RU:RBAN HAS ITS OWN TRANSFER STORY: HOW TO IMPLEMENT URBAN GARDENS

    The philosophy behind URBACT Transfer Networks is embedded in its name: transferring a city’s Good Practice to a group of cities that have adhered to the possibility of adopting (and adapting) such Good Practice and make it their own. All in the spirit of sharing knowledge and experience with the ultimate goal to improve quality of life, in its manifold facets, in our cities. Every Transfer Network is supposed to produce a “transfer story” which is, in not so many words, the tale of how the good practice has been transferred to other EU cities, which have been the challenges faced and the opportunities emerged from the process.
