- About:

Across the world, research shows that cities have lost the sense of neighbourhood and community living that used to make people feel more connected to each other and urban environments happier places to live.

MyNeighbourhood aims to create a new and ‘smarter’ conception of the ‘City’ that focuses on people and their well-being rather than just ICT infrastructures alone.

My Neighbourhood will use new technologies and citizen generated data to help recreate a lost sense of neighbourhood that is rooted in local place, common ties and personal interaction.
