Imagine.brussels NFT contest

Call to artists and artist schools in Brussels to make sketches, drawings, videos, animations to re-imagine the streets of Brussels. The goal is to make us dream, imagine a different future where the issues of pollution, climate change and social justice would be a thing of the past. We use NFTs to teach artists a new way of funding their art and to enable all citizens to own a piece of the artistic renaissance.

Citizen Corner

There are so many empty spaces in our cities. Even more so now that companies are letting their employees work remotely. We citizens need to reclaim that space. Imagine what we could do if every neighborhood had a common space where we can meet, organize activities, learn, co-create, party, … In other words, a place to rebuild community.

The Citizen Corner is a temporary occupation of an old building that used to belong to the post office. This is how we got the keys. Head to the website to learn more about the activities happening there.

People Assemblies Online 🔅

It’s easy to get caught up in our respective social media bubbles. We end up seeing things as black or white. We stop understanding each other and we become blind to solutions that can help increase the resilience of our communities.

That’s why we are organizing People Assemblies. It’s an opportunity to learn about a topic with experts but also with fellow citizens.

Citizen Spring Academy 🌱☀️🌻

Incubator for starting new sustainable places in the city. In a world that has to change, we need entrepreneurs more than ever. We need them to turn our cities into 15-minute cities, where we can all enjoy a fun and sustainable lifestyle within a 15-minute radius, walk or bike. If you have ever dreamed of starting your own sustainable shop, this is for you!

Citizen Garden 🌱 🌻

Nature defending itself in cities made for cars. Use the space in front of your garage door or next to a pedestrian crossing where cars are not supposed to park to put a community garden. It also creates a reason to bring neighbors together around a shared project.

Citizen Bike Garden 🚲 🌱

Building with neighbors a bike shed for 6-8 bikes with two citizen gardens on top.
