Hold tight – here comes the second meeting in the series “Housing Solutions”.
The global trend of cooperative housing is also taking its first steps in Israel and the community of planners is required to relate to the developing sector and to understand its potential. Existing projects and those promoted these days bring with them a new approach to urbanism that places the community at the center.

The meeting will be moderated by Eitan Sverber and Shai Am-Shalem, members of the Forum Young Planners, and leaders of the COMMUNIT project, which promotes cooperative housing projects in new neighborhoods.
In the meeting we will try to understand whether communal housing is another way to deal with the housing shortage? What innovative forms of cooperative housing are emerging in Israel? What models already exist? How is this going to show? What audiences will be directed and what are the necessary accommodations for the different audiences in Israel? Most importantly, is this the beginning of a refreshing and genuine change or a partial solution that involves additional challenges?

We will present three case studies of “cooperative housing” in Israel, which represent different expressions of this type of residence and define the concept differently:

Adam Schwadron – Dror Israel, an urban kibbutz, cooperative housing as a catalyst for social change
Chen Avni – CEO of VENN, cooperative housing as a neighborhood system
Yehuda Livneh, co-operative Co Housing Israel, cooperative housing for the third generation

The meeting will be moderated by Eitan Sverber and Shai Am-Shalem, members of the Forum Young Planners, and leaders of the COMMUNIT project, which promotes cooperative housing projects in new neighborhoods.
