A VOICE FOR THE KIDS IN RINGPARKEN IN SLAGELSE
ABOUT THE PROJECT
Konradi - life in and between the houses works, in collaboration with FOB, on the implementation of an involvement and development process in the residential area Ringparken, where the area's children have the opportunity to make Ringparken an even better place to live. The involvement and development process must contribute to strengthening the children's democratic skills, commitment and ownership of the housing area.
Ringparken is a residential area in Slagelse with approximately 2000 residents. The residential area is currently affected by a comprehensive social housing plan as well as a larger development plan, which involves both social and physical measures. As part of this process of change, FOB wants to give children a voice in the development of Ringparken. In collaboration with the area's local resources, e.g. residential social workers and the area's operations staff, the children are involved via a future workshop. The method is based on the children's own visions and in how their collective dreams can be realized. The future workshop must result in a number of concrete improvement proposals, which the children must present to relevant decision-makers in and around Ringparken.
