neighbourhood

As we re-discover the importance of local communities, a Helsinki based startup proposes a tool for basically everything regarding information and communication in a city or a neighborhood. Or any location, actually.

I talked to Superhood's founder, Markku Mehtälä, about this modern agora:
- it's a social discovery hub for all things local
- it aggregates local information sources, solving a major communication problem for cities
- you follow a location instead of other persons
- it only allows locals to post and discuss, reducing the noise and increasing involvement, while outsiders can follow a location
- it creates an informed community that is more engaged and better connected to the authorities that manage the area
- it is a bulletin board for local businesses and entrepreneurs, enabling them to easily find an audience

This week on Unpacked we are chatting with guests Patricia Sproule and Hanna Mughal. Patricia or Patty as we know her is the President and CEO of Sproule Consulting, Executive Director with Synergy, an amazing advocate for youth in Chestermere. Hanna Mughal, University Student Research and Synergy employee and long time advocate for youth in Chestermere. We chat with Patty and Hanna about the need to listen and ask questions on youth safety and how to best serve the physical, emotional, social and mental health well being of the young people in our city. The need comes out of a response to a tragic suicide of a local youth and this group of community leaders were desperate to prevent this from happening again. Patty and Hanna share with us the process and their heart break and walk us through the survey results.  The data may be specific to Chestermere, the common thread of challenges for our teenagers affects all of our neighbourhoods.

Nothing is really private in an apartment block. We don’t care if our neighbours hear us yelling or having sex. It’s time to tear down those walls and show your true self. Research has shown that getting to know your neighbours is good for your health! We’re going to teach you how.

Intro / Outro Music:  Cowboy Lullaby - JHS Pedals

Vanessa and Andy reflect on "The Great Disconnect", a locally produced documentary on community life in our neighbourhoods. We also tackle "Spiritual Consumerism" that threatens to subvert the Gospel's work in our lives.

1. The Great Disconnect

We respond to a documentary that explores how surprisingly isolated we are in our neighbourhoods and how our happiness and sense of meaning in life is related to our interdependence and relation to others.

2. Spiritual Consumerism

We have a tendency towards consumerism that can infect our spiritual lives. We want to guard against this in our lives and on our show

Wie können Stadtteile für die Nachbarschaft, öffentliche Orte, Grün- und Freiräume in dichter werdenden und neoliberal ausgerichteten Städten erhalten bleiben? Wie kann Mapping und die Analyse geografischer Daten bei strategischer Planung mit Fokus auf Gemeinwohl und ökologische Nachhaltigkeit weiterhelfen? Diesen Fragen widmen sich Kay Pallaris von Mapping Futures und Stephen Kenny, Vorstand des Grove Park Neighbourhood Forum aus London.

Im Rahmen des Urbanize Festivals 2018 in der Nordbahnhalle sprach Radio dérive mit ihnen über Mapping, die Zukunft urbaner Nationalparks, Möglichkeiten widerständige Nachbarschaften und der gemeinschaftlichen Produktion von Stadt.

In recent years the number of families living in apartments has reached record highs. So too has the number of complaints from neighbours. Producer Elise Cooper speaks with PHD candidate Sophie-May Kerr about her research into the state of living for families in apartments, and Alyx Dennison, a mum, musician, partner and step-mum, about her personal experiences with the stress of co-habitation with strangers.
