How can we create an environment for open dialogue and empowerment?

When We Care

"When We Care" is a series of creative workshops developed in collaboration with the WE Woman Empowerment Space in Piazza Domenicani 22. The goal of the workshops is to engage participants across generations through activities that emphasise co-creation and empowerment.

In our increasingly individualistic society, there is a growing need to create spaces that emphasise collective care and empathy. “When We Care” is an initiative designed to create such environments by co-designing and introducing Care Tools that encourage individuals
to connect, share and support one another.

The Care Tools developed—Exchange Circle, Art of Care,
and Tower of Care—aim to facilitate meaningful interaction. These efforts aim to transform the WE Space into a vibrant hub for community engagement and care, continually refined through participant feedback and future collaborations.

Project 2 - String Figures

In the second Semester of MA in Eco-Social Design, student teams cooperate with external partners on “real world” projects. The partners were invited to contribute with a specific issue, challenge or topic, which served as starting points for the students to develop answers, solutions, but also to raise new questions. During the spring of 2024, eleven projects were developed, each one exploring a specific topic and with its own perspective. In collaboration with / partners: BASIS Vinschgau Venosta, Blufink, Comune di Bolzano Settore Donna, Comune di Stelvio, Climate Action South Tyrol, South Tyrol Music Festivals, COOLTour, Foundation Haydn, OfficineVispa, Politermica, Regreening Rentsh, Wiesl.
