Content

This learning journey comes with unique chances and responsibilities … to actively contribute to the community. Guided by the staff team, you are in charge of the project definition, the design of the interventions, the planning and organisation of the festival and building activities, as well as the communication, with the manifesto as your touchstone.

Simultaneously and intertwined with the 3 parallel trails, a select but agile and empathic team of students, gives form to the project. Here all needs, dreams, opportunities and ideas are envisioned in one – or more – spatial interventions. While developing plans and sections, the design is regularly checked with all participants, the community, municipality and the staff team. The interventions envision the values and ambitions of the course. 

Gradually everyone takes on a role, following his or her skills, knowledge and interests. Designer, ambassador, coordinator of the participatory processes or hands-on construction workshops, developer or producer of new building materials, urban harvester, photographer, social media manager, budget controler… all roles are equally important and all participants are equally responsible to contribute to the project, its design and realisation …and related activities.
