Abstract (English)

Cowork15’ is a component of largest research and development platform UrbanLink15’ in partnership with UVT Digital & Green Living Lab. The goal of UrbanLink15’s research is to identify healthier lifestyles and sustainable facilities that support residents from the economic, social, and environmental impact. Contributing to community wellbeing is the ultimate goal of the UVT Digital & Green Living Lab. The initiative focuses both on promoting hybrid work developed as a relationship between organizational workspaces, living spaces, and neighbourhood indoor plus outdoor coworking spaces, and the (re)connection with the sustainable mobility solutions of the concept of ‘15-minute city’. The article presents results of the 2022 Cowork 15’research based on interviews with office workers from the most important Timisoara’s town business center and workers from a coworking space plus a focus group with people that work in a coworking space from Timisoara. The aim of Cowork15’research is to determine the workers mobility behaviour between home and workplace and motivations to change the current mobility behaviour with alternative healthier and greener ways of working and mobility. Also, the article presents a concept of an interior Public Coworking Space and an Urban Community Gardens with dedicated outdoor co-working spaces as pilot project.
