Film
The short film, Fruitvale: A Community Compass for Regeneration explores a neighbourhood acting for urban regeneration.
Shown in Aotearoa New Zealand’s Architecture & Design Film Festival 2025, the film focuses on the Fruitvale school community and their wide-ranging vision for regenerative change in the school and wider neighbourhood.
The community has created their own regenerative ‘compass’ and action plan that helps them to take action to regenerate their local river, grow local food, teach their kids about local ecosystems and support their local community. The research was funded by the “Cities” National Science Challenge.
