Cultural Acupuncture Treatment for Suburbs
Date du début: 1 mai 2011,

Suburbanization is a dominant process in European cities today. Project aims to inspire inhabitants of cities help to solve the problems joint with uncontrollable suburbanization in the place they live by the creative way, in a region where the idea of common property and collectivism was so intensive, in the past, that today the individual interest denies any socialization of public space. The main goal of the project is to create tools based on results for sustainable development of cities through the means of art and culture. To solve suburban problems successfully, it is important to cooperate on EU-wide level to share expert consultations from different institutions and different countries. Project is based on a long-term cooperation among project partners and knowledge distribution in cross-sectoral and cross-generational way. Project will provide 5 actions of acupunctural character in each of partner cities whereas it will take an inspiration from other similar successful projects. 5 actions in 6 cities (together 30) will be held. Each action will be specific for certain type of suburb and will involve different fields (artists, actors, architects, sociologists.) in conferences, symposia, workshops and art interventions in partner cities. The main objectives are to offer recreational activities and to stimulate socializing; implement integrated urban and regional development strategy; attract new audiences to arts. The results became an instruction for other cities inhabitants how to improve the quality of their city environment in a cultural way. During the project implementation the communication with inhabitants and city representatives will play important role. Our goal is to promote the transnational mobility of people working in this field and to involve people with different backgrounds in searching for best solution about this problem. The best outcome is guaranteed by cultural cooperation between artists, inhabitants, administrations, experts.
