UrbaMonde has worked with the city of Annemasse to put in place a housing project cooperative, participatory and affordable in the Area of joint Planning (ZAC) Star Annemasse Genève.

 

This support includes the launch of a call for projects and incubator groups capita·es which aims to strengthen the partnership between the public and civil, and the power to act of the people as actors in the transformation of their territory.

In 2019, several steps have been taken in the image of the first call to project habitat co-operative and the birth of a group of capita·es that is formed as the public events organized in the framework of the incubator.

The project of the ZAC Star-driven Annemasse Agglo is a unique opportunity to experience the development of housing projects to be participatory in the Haute-Savoie. This future area that develops on the joint Ambilly, Annemasse, and Ville-la-Grand on the site of the former hospital and around what will be the new station CEVA Annemasse – a central element of the future Regional Express Network incorporates more than 17 hectares of the surfaces of dwellings, offices, retail space, training facilities, public spaces and leisure spaces.

Since 2020, a reconciliation is in progress with the city of Ambilly to the signing of a long-term lease. Moreover, urbaMonde has been sought to produce a return of experience of the negotiations between the association of the inhabitants and the local public actors in order to query the levers in place to facilitate the emergence of projects from habitat collective and non-speculative.
