What is the resource about?
The idea of transforming a school into a community hub was brought to life through architecture in the Danish town of Ikast-Brande. When the local school required additional space, the new building "Hjertet" (Danish for "The Heart") was intentionally designed to host a wide range of initiatives. This not only ensured optimal use of the facilities but also strengthened connections between the school and the wider community.
