Beyond the school perimeter involving the neighbourhood

In a period of rapid change, the central role of school and educational training in civil society has led to the renewal of the complex school sphere. The possibilities of regeneration of the considerable building heritage involved are explored through the close link between places, spaces and life experiences, the practices conducted and the teaching methods that characterise them. Responding to needs beyond functionality, regulations and standards with a sensitive and open attitude towards the humanistic and social components is also a prerequisite for the NEB - New European Bauhaus, the European Commission. NEB is an interdisciplinary project around the terms «beautiful» for our eyes, mind, and soul, «sustainable» to regain harmony with nature, the environment and the Planet, and «inclusive» to encourage a dialogue between cultures, disciplines, genders and ages.
