Specialist Neighborhood Coaching 20% on a mandate for 3 years

The Auzelg quarter is located on the northeastern edge of the city of Zürich and is determined by various infrastructure facilities such as the highway and railway line as well as landscape boundaries. In order to further develop the quarter, a development mission statement* was developed in cooperation with the owner representatives and various service departments of the city of Zürich and was passed by the City Council this spring. The development mission statement determines goals and measures for long-term quarter development.
