Parkticipacija (HR)

Parkticipacija is an NGO that brings together eco-activists, enthusiastic gardeners and permaculture designers, and it deals with the practical education of the public about growing food in the city, as well as publicly advocating the establishment of social gardens and the laying out of public spaces in such a way as to enable networking and the development of a local community on principles of sustainability, solidarity and mutual respect for diversity, interests and needs.

We employ permaculture principles of design and a polyculture / organic approach wherever possible, for as great as possible yields on the limited space of urban gardens, combined with an economic use of energy and water. We are equally at home at work in the garden and with pots.

Parkticipacija produces in these areas a very rare, and perhaps the first ever, combination of activism and practical application – in this case in the area of urban permaculture, which, with all the crises in climate, food and money and with the fact that 50% of the world’s population lives in cities without any clear alternatives, has become a necessity.
