A new urban vineyard will grow at the Polytechnic University of Turin
An urban vineyard is born in Turin… within a university campus! Urban regeneration, common goods, technology and environmental innovation are the key words behind this innovative project promoted by the Polytechnic University of Turin (Politecnico di Torino) and Citiculture, a green tech startup that transforms urban spaces into places of great social and environmental impact with hi-tech vineyards
The goal is to transform our cities into places where nature and urban life coexist harmoniously, creating green and sustainable spaces capable of improving people's quality of life.
Join us in this mission and choose to support a useful initiative, created to build an extraordinary new space within Politecnico’s main campus.
5 good reasons to support the Turin Polytechnic's vineyard
By supporting this vineyard, you contribute to bring sustainable urbanization at Politecnico di Torino. Within this extraordinary venue, each vine will write a story of research, innovation and passion, becoming a symbol of change.
With your contribution to the vineyard of the Politecnico di Torino “Campus Grapes”, you help create an environment that can foster biodiversity in the city. Urban vineyards represent living spaces for pollinating insects and a variety of flora that enriches the urban landscape and defends the vineyard from its main pathogens.
An urban vineyard improves air quality, absorbs CO2 and reduces the urban heat island effect. Donating means contributing to a more livable city, with concrete benefits for the environment and the health of citizens.
With the project, spaces for community participation are created, involving students, teachers and citizens in the phases of birth and development of the vineyard. By donating, you enter a community built on sense of belonging, social cohesion, and community bonds.
By participating in crowdfunding, you will promote a new conception of City. You will be able to proudly share your contribution to an innovative, concrete, open and localized project!
