HI EVERYBODY! Ok, so now the summer is over, the first weeks of utter uni chaos have been or are being dealt with, and its time to reflect of the past and think of the future of Reinventing Folkets Park. We will be having a meeting with the Director of Folkets Park on Friday to check out what he generally thought of last semesters project, and we would like to ask YOU what you thought of it as well! So if you haven't done it already, please take a few minutes to answer our survey (no matter if you participated in the full project or just attended one input session). THANKS!!!

Just wanted to share this with everyone. I think this could be a nice note for Scandinavia also! :) http://www.theatlanticcities.com/neighborhoods/2013/09/accidental-playground-what-we-need-our-parks-more-freedom/6754/

It was paved in broken concrete, overgrown with weeds, and strewn with broken glass. In other words, it was the perfect urban recreation space.

Thank you all for coming to the Sustainable Cities talk tonight. It was really amazing to see so many interested faces. Both speakers were engaging and I'm glad everyone had a good time!

If you would like to join us for our next input session we will be discussing urban gardening, permaculture, and green infrastructure. It is "Rediscovering Nature" and will be at 18:30 on April 22nd. Look here for the event information later this week!

We are asking Malmo residents to tell us what is important for them in Folkets Park in the form of a Chalk Board Wall.

Hello! For those who participated in the making of the Chalk Board Wall I am excited to tell you the wall has had so much positive reaction! We are so pleased!

One of the walls was unfortunately taken down though so we would like to organize a work party to paint it again. It will only take about 2 hours. Is anyone interested in doing this with us sometime this week??
I hope everyone is well!

Thanks for another great session last night guys! It was nice to see so many familiar but also so many new faces. And it was inspiring to gather so many new ideas for a better waste management and a more welcoming park entrance in such a short time. We will hang on to all of them and keep them for our final cottage weekend, May 17-19, where we will work on our final proposal. We hope to see you all in our additional lecture on April 10th in Geocentrum (more info will follow) and our next session "Rediscovering nature" on April 22nd.
