The World Soundscape Project

The World Soundscape Project is an initiative that studies the relationship between people and their acoustic environments. Founded in the 1970s in Canada, it focuses on recording and analyzing sounds from various places to understand how these sounds influence our life and well-being. The project aims to raise awareness about soundscapes, which are the unique combinations of sounds in different settings, and promote better urban planning and a more harmonious relationship with our auditory surroundings. Through workshops, recordings, and research, it encourages appreciation and preservation of meaningful sound environments.
