Samenvatting

The municipality of Rotterdam has the ambition to realize a healthy city by 2020. A healthy diet is high on the list of priorities and the municipality is supporting initiatives to ensure that healthy food is available for resident of Rotterdam. The Oude Westen district in the city center of Rotterdam has very little meaningful green space. This pilot project merges a primary school with public space in such ways that young school kids are raised with growing healthy food and a stay in accommodations with open air qualities, while Rotterdam benefits from green interventions in its rather dense downtown area.
