Vision
Make your city bloom! Before/After Visualization
Necessary changes often fail due to a lack of imagination. This AI tool translates your ideas into images and show how car-dominated spaces can be transformed into livable, sustainable places. The tool by "Blooming Cities" helps you showcase the possibilities of a flourishing city.
Align on Your Impact Goals
Get crystal clear on the change you want to achieve, in the near-term and long-term. Impact is a very loosely used term universally, and can be used to describe an influence or effect on virtually anything. Taking time to explore and align on your impact goals will ensure that your team and stakeholders are all working towards the same vision of success.
Getting to the core of human behaviour
The Five Whys is a simple yet powerful research method from human-centered design. Starting with a broad question about a person's habits or behaviours, you ask "why" five times in a row — not horizontally ("why else?") but vertically, going deeper with each answer until you uncover the emotional and human roots of a problem. The method takes only about 15 minutes, requires nothing more than pens and paper, and is designed to get to the core of a person's beliefs and motivations.
Action
Mobility Parcour
This experiential mobility tool empowers citizens to discover and evaluate shared mobility options through direct, hands-on experience. Participants can test different sharing modes, such as bicycles, cargo bikes, e-scooters, and shared cars, in a low-threshold setting without complex registration processes. By reducing barriers to trial and exploration, the activity encourages informed mobility choices and increases awareness of the opportunities that shared mobility can offer in everyday life.
Window Banner
Initiatives use window banners to communicate their demands to the public. This creates visibility and helps the initiative grow, encouraging more and more people to join the cause and the banner campaign.
Crosswalk action
During their campaign for a safer city, the initiative "Platz für Wien" temporarily rolled out crosswalks. Places were chosen where crosswalks would make a big difference for the safness of pedestrians.
