We are helping to host the launch of some interesting work by Savannah Fishel drawing lessons from intergenerational cohousing communities in the USA and Australia. Her observations reflect our experience in the UK, and helps deepen our approach to Build Belonging, where we turn developments into strong communities with a sense of belonging and neighbourly living.
The launch on 16 July includes high profile attendees and a brief exhibition of case studies. The report will draw out the conditions that contribute to social cohesion between generations, and the strategies, interventions or designs that are effective in mitigating friction and helping a community to thrive.
