Call for projects // Sustainable small-scale land use and urban gardening – student garden
In August 2020 Alumni Göttingen was provided with an allotment garden close to the Kiessee. For 2021, all students are invited to hand in projects that are going to be realized in the allotment garden. In cooperation with Alumni Göttingen, Stiftung WissenWecken gGmbH provides funding for projects related to sustainable small-scale land use, urban gardening or environmental education. Possible topics are, e. g. subsistence farming on urban land, pollinator-/insect-friendly vegetation for urban areas, water-saving cultivation of vegetables or fruits, etc. Stiftung WissenWecken provides funding of up to 1,000 Euro for material expenses for projects.
All students enrolled at Göttingen University can apply as individuals or teams before 15 April 2021.
