Description of the project
The project's goal is the green transformation of modern city environments
by proposing outdoor activities for non-formal education such as urban
gardening as a platform for education, intercultural dialogue, community building,
safe lifestyles, civic inclusion, and incorporation of disadvantaged people.
The
expected results are:
- the creation of a Manual focusing on using the
urban garden as a place for education and socialization, as well as
including good practices and positional interpretation for long term
growth;
- the implementation of workshops to inspire people
to volunteer in the urban gardens and socialize with their neighbors;
- improving community relations, decreased
environmental risks, expanded access to nutritious foods, and a more
balanced lifestyle by urban gardening.
