Our Mission
eSMART – promoting peri-urban sustainable management solutions through art, research and technology
Your food from the neighborhood! Eat healthier, stay in contact with nature, and get involved socially.
Our goal is that all people can enjoy in the space of Potsdam/Berlin freshly picked salads and vegetables. This improves the health and the environmental and social climate in cities.
With circular land as a Service (Farming as a Service – FaaS), which are from the urban space is accessible and open to the communities that need them most, we can together find the way to a more resilient and sustainable world level.
Why?
Nutrition, Climate, Circularity, and Food systems innovation and empowerment of communities are the prioritises used as a framework for the development of the eSMART concept.
People
Various publications suggest that getting involved in urban food growing, or just being exposed to it in our daily lives, may lead to healthier diets and improve general well-being. Convergent, holistically integrated, fully resilient SMART connected community with social integration / healthy social contacts.
Education
Building the knowledge base to mutually understand methodological baseline and then deliver customized online + offline training sessions : design and propose open standards for sustainable citizen-driven food systems and improved nutrition behaviour.
Community support
eSMART will function as an ecosystem for community accessibility, self-production of food, entrepreneurship platform, transgenerational education and knowledge exchange, and will open up opportunities for more sustainable city (and city surroundings) and for the participation of its citizens.
Open Software & Hardware
