Our main projects include creating shared gardens and a community orchard, developing a green gathering place, bringing more greenery to the village centre, improving the walking connection between the centre and the railway station, and launching POUCE+, a community-based shared hitchhiking initiative.
Lustin en Transition is a volunteer-led citizens’ association based in Lustin, in the municipality of Profondeville, Belgium. Its priorities were shaped by local residents through a survey with 194 participants and a participatory workshop attended by 74 people, where residents identified the projects they considered most important for their community. The association brings people together to turn these priorities into practical action, including community gardening and orchard projects, biodiversity initiatives, greener public spaces, active mobility and neighbourhood events. It also looks to the future through the “Dream of Lustin”, a long-term vision for the village. Our approach is non-partisan, inclusive and rooted in local participation and cooperation.
