FILM: In Riga, the Desire an Irresistible Circular Society project is facing the biggest local challenge we have here: Changing the mentality of the people, to make them realize they are not just users living in a place where a central system deals with everything, but that they can actively engage in and create their own city – their own home. 

Have a look at the new Desire film with our partner Riga municipality, Rudis Rubenis and Ieva Zībārte, Representative of the municipalities department Rigas Buildings.

The filmmaker is Benjamin Hesselholdt.

The Desire project is a part of the EU initiative New European Bauhaus.
