Within 6 months, dozens of participants got acquainted with all phases of an urban development project – from how to find like-minded people and create a community, to how to find funding. In a series of meetings with guest lecturers, we looked at Bulgarian and international examples, and the proposals of the participants for the city of Sofia. We arranged Sofia in an exhibition.
The Academy showed how many young people are willing to work for better cities for all. We strive to pass on to them the lessons already learned and encourage them to realize their ideas. The successful model of the Academy continues with activities in Gabrovo, Veliko Tarnovo and Sofia in 2024-2025.
