What is CityStudio?
CityStudio is an immersive course, developed in Vancouver and first run in Australia in Bendigo 2018, that takes students outside the classroom, working with their local Council, community and university to make places more sustainable, liveable and joyful. CityStudio brings diverse student disciplines together to combine their skills to problem solve and co-create solutions to a key sustainability question, challenge or opportunity facing the community. CityStudio is back in 2019, working with the City of Greater Bendigo to answer the question of how can Bendigo mobilise change through food?
