Part I - The Roof Gardens of the Valletta Design Cluster
The first part of the workshop is a site-specific, collaborative transdisciplinary exercise about the new rooftop garden that will be created on the Valletta Design Cluster [VDC] Bi膵膵ierija building. The process around the rooftop garden will involve local and international stakeholders, across disciplines. It will also be a beta-test of Growing Pathways鈥檚 site-specific transdisciplinary tool.

Part II - Mapping and Creating the Network and Collaboration
The second session will produce a first visual overview and idea of the scope and potential of the MUNIN network. We will run a cultural mapping exercise before and during the workshop to have input from both workshop participants and other potential members of the MUNIN network. By sharing their practical interventions and research, the participants will map culturally intervening agents involved in developing the role of urban nature in cities around the Mediterranean.
