Belgrade, Vilnius, Sarajevo, Chemnitz and Budapest – 25 young and motivated workshop participants from five different cities came together to discuss problems, developments and future opportunities for Belgrade's much neglected city quarter Savamala. What is special about this district and how can Savamala be a model for other cities like the ones they are coming from?
Self-made music instruments and first aid kits against traffic noise, a "living room" outside at the River bank for a warm ambience at exceptional places - within six days, the "Youth in Action"-group developed own creative ideas. Their exchange of views, perspectives and ideas resulted in various, multi-faceted projects.
All of these ideas highlighted the hidden potential of Savamala and even engaged some of the residents and raised the awareness of the many different facets a city quarter has. A “Museum of Sounds”, signposting for small “Exhibitions”, or creating an “outdoor home” – small actions only brought home very impressively the idea that “a sense of home” can be developed everywhere, and that seems to be especially important in such a neglected city part as Savamala.
