Our Ciutat Meridiana workshop featured on TV3

By January 29, 2013Blog, Ciutat Meridiana

This year’s workshop with the Ciutat Meridiana neighborhood, which focused on improving the living conditions of this “Eviction City” through urban upgrading strategies and community participation, was featured in a video reportage on the Catalan channel TV3.

El Drama dels Desnonaments en Ciutat Meridiana (The Drama of Evictions in Ciutat Meridiana), highlights the difficulties encountered by residents who fell victim to Spain’s notorious real estate bust and mentions our workshop as one of the resulting initiatives to improve the urgent situation. At minute 01.30, the report shows our students at work and interviews our co-director Carmen Mendoza about the workshop and its objective to propose solutions to the current situation as well as to promote the positive aspects of the vibrant neighborhood.
