Problem
Citizen initiatives and small community projects often find no lasting place and no connection to one another — they spring up alone and fade away, instead of forming a visible, durable structure of public engagement.
Solution
String a chain of small, citizen-run projects — workshops, gardens, initiatives — around the town hall, so they support one another and keep giving public life a steady supply of energy.
