Network of inquisitive citizens
Relation to the urbanscape
As a citizen, understanding your city environment is fundamental to your ability to be involved in the further development of your city. But knowledge collected about your city is often difficult to access, and the methods used to gather data are limited. Involving citizens in data collection will allow them a shared responsibility for the city. Designing how data is collected, and how it is translated into communication, is a vital aspect.
Scaling up prospects
We plan to develop not only a ‘citizens’ atlas’ of our city of operation, but also a methodology on how to create a network of inquisitive citizens in other cities.
