In a city where the waiting list for expensive \u201csocial housing\u201d is endless, we decided to build our own houses and work in a sustainable and self-sufficient way. In Kanaleneiland in particular, only a couple of years back social housing was sold to private corporations behind people\u2019s backs.<\/p>\n<p>While the Netherlands presents itself as a \u201cgreen country\u201d, green spaces in the city keep on disappearing. We are not the only ones being evicted from the Swamp. Birds, rabbits, bats, bees and other animals and insects will also lose their living spaces.<br \/>\nWe won\u2019t keep silent. We won\u2019t just leave.
