KGB - Knowledge Garden Bauhaus
ASSOCIAZIONE LINK APS
Altamura, Italy
Description
After two editions of the Knowledge Garden project, in 2024 and 2025, the third and final phase aims to enhance the outdoor space of the Agorateca community library, transforming it into a place for meeting and socialising, cultural production, and shared knowledge. The goal of this team is to make the KG more aligned with the principles of the New European Bauhaus—namely, more beautiful, sustainable, and inclusive. The activities will include the improvement of green areas, functional upgrades, and the care and enhancement of furnishings. The project will conclude with an event serving as the inauguration of the summer programme for the local community. https://www.linkyouth.org/storie/in-arrivo/1711-volontari-esc-per-il-knowledge-garden?highlight=WyJrbm93bGVkZ2UiXQ== https://www.linkyouth.org/progetti/corpo-europeo-di-solidarieta/1847-knowledge-garden-2?highlight=WyJrbm93bGVkZ2UiXQ==
