Join the conference “Root & Knowledge: Cultivating Community Garden on Campus” at Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland! 🌿🇵🇱
Did you know? There’s only one other community garden on a university campus in Poland, located in Toruń. Our initiative marks the second of its kind, demonstrating our commitment to pushing the boundaries of sustainability and fostering a culture of environmental stewardship right at the heart of Jagiellonian University Campus. Our community garden isn’t just a green space—it’s a natural laboratory, following the Campus Living Lab strategies developed by our university. Through hands-on workshops and participatory design sessions involving inhabitants, we’ve crafted a model for sustainable campus development. Join us at the conference to discover the concept of community gardens if you’re new to the idea. Learn how our garden has been developed through participatory design, with input from students every step of the way. Hear from experts about campus sustainable initiatives, and engage in lively debates with speakers at the end of their presentations. For those joining us onsite, you’ll also have the opportunity to explore the garden firsthand with a small guided tour. It’s a chance to see sustainability in action and be inspired by the possibilities to see community gardens on our campuses.Speakers:
