The internships in the gardens of Rome that involved the gardenisers of Barranquilla gave them the opportunity to get to know and challenge themselves in a model of urban community gardens that puts people, the social fabric, the activities that build and strengthen community and the experiences that create new meanings for the neighbourhoods and their inhabitants - at the centre.
6 gardens were visited
2 gardens involved the gardenisers in training and practical activities
2 community activities were led by the Gardenisers in the community gardens in Rome
2 meetings with public institutions at local and departmental level
1 exchange meeting at international level at FAO
We continue to build links between Rome and Barranquilla to build greener and more sustainable cities together!
The Gardeniser training in Colombia is part of the project GenerACTOR - Community gardens for good governance, active citizenship and participation, a project co-funded by the European Commission.
