The event organised by IN-HABIT during ‘Patios de Ciencia’ took place in the courtyard of San Basilio and was attended by a good number of participants.

IN-HABIT took part in ‘Patios de Ciencia’ for the second time in the framework of the European Researchers’ Night. The event was attended by 12 participants – the maximum allowed for this meeting – as well as the project coordinator, María del Mar Delgado, and the local activators Isotta Mac Fadden and Javier Martínez.

The courtyard of San Basilio 15 was the perfect setting to host this scientific talk in which attendees discussed the activities being carried out by the project in Las Palmeras and the development that the area is undergoing.

During the meeting titled ‘IN-HABIT, co-creating courtyards’ (IN-HABIT, co-creando patios) and a subsequent half-an-hour session, the researchers explained how the project is investigating the way in which the ‘patios’ can contribute to the health and wellbeing of the population. The discussion between the researchers and the participants also focused on the re-naturalisation of the courtyards of Las Palmeras: one of the goal of IN-HABIT is to create the necessary conditions for the inhabitants to enjoy the benefits of vegetation by co-creating and reproducing the traditional courtyards of Cordoba in the neighbourhood.
