We are a collective of artists, craftspeople, architects, material scientists and urbanists and work in an interdisciplinary field between art, design, spatial planning and social engagement. Our main motivation is to appropriate public space with various formats and in cooperation with other city makers and, together with city residents, to enable low-threshold access to activities, workshops and social and cultural offerings in the neighborhood.

Publication Running circles together
After long, intensive work in the Urban League, the time has come: the "Gemeinsam Kreislaufen" roadmap has been published. In four phases, the "golden piece" outlines a clear path towards the vision of a central material depot - as inspiration, guidance and a toolbox for all those who want to shape our cities together in a sustainable and resource-saving way.The roadmap shows how zero waste can become a living zero city practice: with concrete steps, tried-and-tested tools and examples that municipalities, initiatives and stakeholders can take up directly. We are delighted with Luis about this release and look forward to continuing the approaches together with local partners.➡️ To the Urban League's announcement:https://urbane-liga.de/news/roadmap-zum-materialdepot-von-zero-waste-zu-zero-city/📄 Directly to the publication (PDF):https://urbane-liga.de/wpfiles/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/GEMEINSAM_KREISLAUFEN_Publikation_web_final.pdf

[BOLZ] PLATZ for all!
Until September, the square was transformed several times a week into an open space for the neighborhood and anyone who wanted to get involved. The activities took place weekly on Monday (soccer training with Faraj and Otto), Tuesday (Capoeira with Edinson (even week)/Baile (dance) with Nayibe (odd week)) and Wednesday (open youth meeting with the Westhang Mobil (Treberhilfe e.V.)), as well as once a month at the weekend and were free of charge.

Fill your belly with the MoKü
In the story of Stone Soup, hungry travelers start cooking soup with an empty pot and a stone. Villagers gradually contribute ingredients until a meal is created that everyone shares. The principle: everyone brings a few ingredients at random, there is an open invitation, and the meal is shared communally.

Projects

The FOR:UM infrastructure was created in 2022 as part of the City of the Future. With this tool for low-threshold actions in public spaces, we temporarily activated various locations in 2023 through various pop-up formats. We are now involved in a wide range of projects to promote urban development for the common good and urban practice! We usually do this in cooperation with local actors and with the help of a broad network of supporters. In our project overview you will find our activities, some initiated by us, in cooperation or as a commission. A mix of volunteering and paid work.
