Purpose & Goals

Why only in Wipkingen?

Following the motto of «big changes require diligent beginnings», the «Quartieridee» in Wipkingen is merely a pilot project. Does it work? Who is willing to participate? What kind of ideas are submitted? To answer these questions the process will be observed and evaluated by Stiftung Risiko-Dialog.

Wipkingen was chosen as the pilot neighborhood because the district association in Wipkingen is actively involved and co-initiated the project. Furthermore, Wipkingen is a diverse neighborhood where numerous clubs and associations shape the civic life and contribute to a general feeling of community. Therefore, Wipkingen provides an ideal breeding ground for interesting discussions and sustainable ideas.
