What this project is really about
Can we imagine life: our school, friendships, food, recreation, leisure with less dependence on fossil fuels? Will it be a life of fun or hardships and limited choices? Or Can it be full of vibrant and sustainable relationships between humans and non-humans? We invite you to experience this idea through a month-long project called 'Exploring a 15 minute city life'. Worldwide, 15 Minute city is an urban planning concept in which most daily necessities and services, such as work, shopping, education, healthcare, and leisure can be easily reached by a 15-minute walk, cycle ride, or public transit ride from any point in the city.
What you'll walk away knowing how to do
This project isn't about memorising facts. It's about building capabilities that transfer — to your next project, your next class, and beyond.
Learn from someone who does this for a living
You're not learning from a textbook. You're learning from a practitioner.
