The Desire Academy podcast takes you on a knowledge gathering mission to the EU project Desire an Irresistible Circular Society. We are one of six lighthouse demonstrators in the New European Bauhaus initiative. The podcast interviews key figures (artists, designers, architects, academics, municipalities, entrepreneurs etc.) involved in the work in the eight Desire pilot sites in five EU countries. In Desire we test different ways of creating social and inclusive housing, transforming through symbiotic relationships and reconciling cities with nature. The point of this podcast is to share knowledge with other New European Bauhaus projects - and with the general public. So sit back and listen to how we can transform our society, cities and communities to become more circular and irresistible. This podcast series is produced by project partner DTU Compute, Denmark. This project is part of the New European Bauhaus. Desire is funded by the European Union.

    How to build a movement? Panel discussion at the Desire event, September 2024

    Over the past two years, the partners of the New European Bauhaus lighthouse project Desire - Designing the Irresistible Circular Society, have been experimenting with building ecosystems to engage citizens in the green transition within their local communities.    At the Desire conference on 10 September in Copenhagen, Diana Krabbendam from The Beach discussed the lessons learned from the Amsterdam demo site Wildemanbuurt with Helene Eiliott from the NEB-Star New European Bauhaus project in Stavanger, Norway.    Experience shows that it can be difficult for citizens to truly believe that they will have a real influence on the development of their neighborhood. Therefore, it is important to build trust among all stakeholders. And it can take time. - In Amsterdam, they have, among other things, established "Design and Do groups" to engage people. Additionally, Peter Andreas Sattrup, Head of Green Transition at NCC, shared his insights on how a large construction company like NCC can draw inspiration from the New European Bauhaus in their building projects. The moderator was Michael Booth.    Desire is funded by the European Union.

    The Power of Art - Julie Quottrup Silbermann | CHART

    How do we make the green transition acceptable, desirable and irresistible for both young people, adults and the elderly? Art could perhaps be part of the answer. The New European Bauhaus initiative connects the European Green Deal to our daily lives and living spaces, by bridging the worlds of art, design, architecture, culture, and education with science and technology in the green transition.   One of the expert organisations | stakeholders in our New European Bauhaus lighthouse project Desire - Designing an Irresistible Circular Society is CHART (a nonprofit organisation – and a leading Nordic art fair). CHART has helped us to understand how art can play a role in the new circular society and the changes required in the green transition. In this podcast, Director Julie Quottrup Silbermann explains the power of art.  This is the Desire Academy podcast series, where Desire members, staff and academics share knowledge about the Desire sites around Europe - and how to transform our society to be more circular and irresistible.  Desire is funded by the European Union. Views and opinions expressed are however those of the author(s) only and do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union or CINEA.
