The IBA Heidelberg is organized locally as a process that involves experts, initiatives, institutions, administration, politics and builders and gets the population excited about the topic. In addition, the dialogue is started with foreign partner universities and cities, which, like Heidelberg, are among so-called “knowledge pearls” - small and medium-sized science cities with an international reputation.

In 2022, all projects will be shown in a real exhibition in the final presentation.

Project development of the Patrick-Henry-Village

An exemplary basis for the “knowledge city of tomorrow” is to be created on the former US military site Patrick-Henry-Village in Heidelberg . In dialogue with experts and the Heidelberg urban society, international urban planning offices drafted scenarios on the main themes of the IBA Heidelberg. The approaches of MVRDV , Carlo Ratti Associati, ASTOC Architects & Planners, Ramboll Liveable Cities Lab and the University of Brighton (UK) were combined into a development vision by KCAP Architects & Planners. This relies on the digital future, new synergies between business and science, a "multi-mobility approach", innovative places of education as well as future-oriented living and working environments and supply systems. The aim is to establish an independent quarter in the metropolitan region that offers work and living space for 10,000 to 15,000 people.

financing

The IBA is dependent on funds from the state of Baden-Württemberg , the federal government and the EU as well as from companies. To implement the IBA, the municipal company has funds of 0.8 million euros annually. Funds are raised by the IBA office in cooperation with partners, for example for the project “The Other Park”, which receives funding of 5.9 million euros as a premium project in the federal program “National Urban Development Projects”, or for the Collegium Academicum , which receives funds of 2.2 million euros from the “Variowohnen” funding program of the Federal Building Ministry.

criticism

Critics fear that the IBA Heidelberg, as a pure “city IBA”, will lack the “supra-regional charisma”. Appropriate project proposals with “international standards” would have to follow, so the demand, otherwise it would remain with a “badge”.
