This has been the year that we’ve seen the Better Block go international with efforts beginning in Australia, Canada, and now Iran! Ali Tayebi was a student in Arlington, Texas and wrote a portion of his dissertation on the Better Block project. After returning to his hometown of Tehran, he began developing a group called “Bahamestan” which translates to “communihood”. You can check out that group’s facebook page here (mostly in Persian).
Their Better Block project is dubbed Kucheye Behtar (Better Alley). The facebook event is located here, with the project taking place on February 28th. We look forward to seeing more of these projects take place all over the world!







The way you presented the community initiatives in Tehran is inspiring and very informative. Your examples really show the impact of thoughtful urban planning. I came across a similar conversation on a review blog, which provided some complementary insights. It’s a reminder of how even local projects, like improvements in client experiences at https://www.sherwaytrilliumdental.ca/, can make a big difference.
