KRAKOW TRANSFER STORY

That day the phones kept ringing. The e-mail inbox repeatedly informed me about new e-mails, of which there were more than 50 ... Invitations from the radio and TV to share more about the project that aroused such interest among the residents, that just three years ago would have been something unimaginable. All this was due to an article that appeared on our website which informed people about the start of a new project. The "Gardeniser +" project with Erasmus Plus which we invited residents to join. Without the RU:RBAN project all this would not have happened.

Društvene igre u službi razvoja grada

Igra, čini se, nije rezervirana samo za djecu, ona može koristiti i onima “malo većima“. Vjerovali ili ne, igra može biti i koristan i inovativan alat za ponovnu upotrebu javnih prostora, druženja, društveno uključivanje i inovaciju (su)građana, zdravo starenje... Može se čak iskoristiti i u radu s onima koji se bore s ovisnošću o kockanju i klađenju, ali i drugim vidovima socijalnih problema. Neki su igru, tj. njene razne aspekte, kako ćemo vidjeti, iskoristili čak i u sklopu razvojne strategije grada.

Espoo edistää kaupunkiluonnon terveysvaikutuksia

URBACTin Health & Greenspace –hankkeessa edistetään kaupunkilaisten elinympäristön tarjoamia terveysvaikutuksia kiinnittämällä huomiota kaupungin viherrakenteeseen eli vihreään infrastruktuuriin. Pääteemoja ovat kaupunkilaisten psyykkisen ja fyysisen terveyden tukeminen, sosiaalinen hyvinvointi, ilmanlaadun parantaminen ja melun lieventäminen sekä varautuminen lisääntyviin helleaaltoihin vihreän infrastruktuurin avulla. Koronapandemia on korostanut viheralueiden merkitystä kaupunkilaisten hyvinvoinnille, sillä kaupungin omistamat ulkotilat ovat toimineet tärkeinä liikkumis- ja kohtaamispaikkoina.

So much more than the IKEA quarter… Transfer story of Targówek, Warsaw

Few people are well acquainted with Targówek. In the minds of Warsaw residents, this district is rather described as: "a peripheral part of the city", "somewhere far beyond Praga", "I heard that the underground is supposed to be coming there - it's incredible!” or „Yeah, I know, I know. Sometimes, I go to IKEA there”. However, the district is inhabited by active residents, coming from diverse backgrounds, building unique neighbourhood communities, so often disappearing in other parts of the city.
