Jobs and Relocation: how to turn challenges into opportunities

A fair deal: social contract, ownership and barn-raising
"Society is a contract among the living, the dead and the unborn"                                                    Edmund Burke
Most dilapidated cities are inhabitated by homeless squatters. For those neighborhoods, "rebulding" means "war". A war between haves and have-nots that often upends the renovation and turns it into a political "third rail". 
We've solved this problem with a new systemic approach that helps dwellers and planners cooperate and design neighborhoods and districts block by block, combining social designers "on the ground" and Apps that connect in real time dwellers and planners.
City Doctors successfully implements a "fair deal" that 
  • Offers jobs in rebuilding
  • Help former squatters build their own homes in community ("barn raising") 
  • Gives builders access to home ownership & education in exchange for a 5-year commitment to the transformation process
  • Gives options for rehab and families to actively participate in redesigning their city
  • Turns conflict into a "win-win" , legal contract & cooperation
  • Builds communities by rebuilding cities and lives.
We partner with governments, NGOs like Habitat for Humanity and Charitable Foundations. Learn more reading "City Doctors" and watching testimonies.
