The Urban Neighborhood BOB gGmbH promotes sustainable neighborhood development with the BOB CAMPUS in Wuppertal-Oberbarmen. The campus combines living space, education, commercial areas, and a neighborhood park to strengthen social cohesion and participation. A place for community and co-design.
The BOB CAMPUS in Wuppertal-Oberbarmen is an exemplary model for equitable and sustainable neighborhood development. The project, initiated by the Montag Stiftung Urbane Räume, transforms a former textile factory and a vacant lot into a vibrant place of community and social cohesion.
The main mission of the BOB CAMPUS is to strengthen social cohesion in the neighborhood, stabilize the local economy, and create greater participation opportunities for residents. The project relies on cooperative development, where the needs and ideas of the neighborhood are central. Through close collaboration with residents, local institutions, and the city of Wuppertal, it is ensured that the BOB CAMPUS becomes a true part of the neighborhood[2][3][5].
The BOB CAMPUS is more than just a construction project – it is a vibrant place that reflects and strengthens the diversity and cohesion of the Oberbarmen neighborhood. Through its diverse uses and strong community orientation, the project sets standards for sustainable and equitable neighborhood development.
