DivAirCity organizes its Pan-European Contest!

7 December 2022

Who can participate?

The contest is open to any young person in the EU aged between 13 and 19 who will group in teams.

A team will be composed of minimum 2 young people (aged 13-19) + an adult over the age of 18 (teacher, care-taker, trainer, parent, etc) as a mentor.

What do you have to do?

Organised in teams, youngsters will have to design one of the five cities in DivAirCity using green spaces and the so-called Nature Based Solutions.

They will have to use their creativity to design a space that is comfortable, healthy, safe and appropriate for their needs and lifestyles.

How?

The team will participate by first having to choose one of the 5 pilot cities which will be the center of the work: Aarhus, Bucharest, Castellon, Orvieto and Potsdam, and analyse its challenges, focusing on air pollution and social inclusion.
