23-25th of march 2006
International Workshop in Dortmund, Germany
Theme: ‘Growing up in the neighbourhood’

What is it like to grow up in the neighbourhood? At this workshop in Dortmund Nordstad, we will look closely at this theme Not only from an adults' perspective, but also (and especially) from the young people's perspective. In vulnerable districts we see many steps being taken to give young people a future, but what are the things that work (or don't work?). During the workshop we will work in two different groups: young people and adults. This workshop will give you the opportunity to learn from eachother across national, ethnical and generational borders and -last but not least- have a lot of fun!. >>read more and registration, english >>

Next Resident University will take place in Birmingham, England on September 13-16, 2006.
We are glad to announce that the preparations for the second Resident University have started. It will take place in Birmingham, England and it will be organised together with the residents, City Council and University of Birmingham.

How does a modern city communicate and interact with its residents in the different neighbourhoods and how do different neighbourhoods communicate and interact with their modern city? How and where do the different interests come together? How do we best deliver public services and how do neighbourhoods manage themselves? These are the questions that will be discussed at the Resident University 2006. These questions come together in the organising theme:

‘Big city, small neighbourhoods, one vision!’.

The latest news will be published on this website: we’ll keep you informed.
