20 YEARS OF GGExplore some of the artworks, performances and writing inspired by water and the hidden river Fleet, created by different people as part of the Voices of the Water programme.
Since our founding in 2004, Global Generation has had a legacy of community engagement and co-design bridging the gap between developers and communities to make beautiful, vibrant public spaces. These spaces don’t just provide environmental benefits through circular design, material re-use and creating wildlife habitats, they also serve as community spaces to gather, grow food and learn from and connect with nature.
In creating these sites, we bring different people together from local residents, to businesses, schools to community organisations to have a say in the development of their local spaces and create greater connections with each other. From the Skip Garden, to Story Garden to Paper Garden we have built green spaces of varied sizes and shapes that can then serve as temporary educational spaces for young people and local residents. We want to mark this important milestone of 20 years with a range of celebrations. Sign up to our newsletter and check back for more information on celebrating with us in 2024!
This page will update throughout the year with new events, activities and ways to get involved.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world.

Each phase of this build programme also involves one of our Research Fellows - young people who have come through our education programmes who we have trained in Action Research to support our evaluation and creative documentation. We are also working in partnership with an ecologist to measure the environmental impact that creating the garden will have, and a researcher from Tranquil City to support the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the traineeship programme.
