CRAB in Laconi: Mapping creative rural hubs

This past May, we hosted our first event in Treballu, Sardinia. Twenty rural spaces joined us for a three-day networking event.

Treballu - Rural Coliving Space

Meet Carlo from Laconi, the one behind the story of @treballu_hub, a community hub in rural Sardinia ๐Ÿ

On reviving villages, merging local and international communities, and the idea of spread coliving.

โ€œWhere there is nothing, you can do everything.โ€

Sende

In a small village in Galicia, right next to the Portuguese border, cows outnumber inhabitants ๐Ÿ„

Thatโ€™s also where Sende was born more than a decade ago โ›ฐ๏ธ

We spoke with Edo, one of its founders, about recovering abandoned places and bringing them back to life; about villages, creating and above all - the people.

Anceu Coliving

Listen to the story of Agustรญn and รfrica - about the connection between Anceu Coliving and Espacio Arroelo, the importance of intergenerational community, and the bridges built between rural and urban contexts. ๐ŸŒฑ

Itโ€™s also a story about the people who arrived - and decided to stay.

Dinamo10

Opening a coworking space in the small Portuguese city of Viana do Castelo came from Joanaโ€™s wish to separate her professional and private life after years of working from home.

For the past fifteen years, Dinamo10 has been a place where people work, meet, fail and create together. ๐Ÿ“

Or, as they like to say - coworking is not a space, coworking is an action.

Final event in Sende

In February, we brought nearly thirty rural creative hubs from across Europe to a tiny village in the middle of the Galician mountains for the CRAB final conference.
