Feed-Back selected as one of the winning proposals for Neighbourhoods for Generations

Feed-Back, our proposal for how to develop neighbourhoods for more intergenerational exchange and social cohesion has been announced one of four winners of Landsbyggefonden's idea competition ‘Neighbourhood for Generations.’

The proposal is a collaboration between SHL and Fælleshaven based on the idea of bringing generations together through activities revolving around shared meals, food circularity and waste systems.

The project seeks to tackle both intergenerational segregation, loneliness, and the challenge of our unsustainable food systems. Together with local residents, a team of food system experts and architects will review all spaces related to food in each community - gardens, kitchens, dining spaces, and recycling facilities. Involving residents is key to uncovering which physical and mental barriers stand in the way of shared mealtimes. Reshaping both the existing living spaces and the social structures, the team will do interventions to encourage growing, harvesting, preparing, and sharing food as a social activity within the community.

Over the next five months a series of events related to Neighbourhoods for Generations will take place, culminating at the world’s largest event on sustainable architecture, UIA World Congress of Architects CPH 2023. So stay tuned!
