Community project on historic estate combats loneliness for two women
Inka Engler and Brigitte Reich have created a unique living project on the Jahnishausen estate in Saxony, Germany, fostering a sense of community and combating loneliness. The project, situated on a significant property, provides a supportive environment for the two women.
Engler says the work on the estate and within the living project keeps her feeling young.
The initiative stands in contrast to other recent news, including London’s decision to ban cars from Oxford Street, creating a pedestrian zone, a proposed increase in parental benefits, and a report highlighting the slow progress of women in leadership positions within German industries, particularly the automotive sector. There’s also been a surge in electric vehicle registrations across Europe and a surprising trend of adults purchasing plush toys.
Elsewhere, a celestial mystery was recently solved by an amateur astronomer observing from his living room, and discussions continue on effective communication strategies despite differing viewpoints.
