Middlesbrough Urban Eco Village (Chris Taylor) MUEV is designed to bring sustainable urban living to one of the most multiply-deprived communities in Britain. The intention is to create a living example of community-led social and environmental transformation. Working with a group of committed local activists they want to create an ecosystem of change based around three transformational themes: Community Cohesion, Ecological Regeneration and Whole Person (Sacred) Activism. This will be combined with a network of volunteer Community Connectors to build bridges across this divided community, and to develop a grounded approach to their activism, called Whole Person Activism. Beneficiaries: community of Gresham, Middlesbrough and wider communities who can see this example and take it forward elsewhere.
