15min-City online Maps
The map shows how close services are if one lives in different areas of the city: in red areas the time needed to access the closest services is on average higher than 15 minutes, while the blue are 15-minute areas. We consider the average time of accessibility to the closest 20 POIs.
Data collection / counting
Data substantiates perceptions and can be used for external communication.
Initiative meets district politics
Citizens' initiatives can meet with district or city politicians to present and discuss their concerns. In district politics, no petition or formal basis is necessary for this; district politicians are usually open to discussion. It is important that the initiative is not politically appropriated by opposition parties and that the possibility of joint implementation with the district is communicated.
Joint Survey
Initiatives, together with political decision-makers, survey the public about the initiative and its demands.
Nachhaltigkeits-Indikatoren für STRAsseninfrastrukturprojekte (NISTRA)
An instrument that enables the assessment of road infrastructure projects taking into account sustainability goals.
Newspaper of Tomorrow
The Newspaper of Tomorrow tool gives you the opportunity to project into the future to create a shared vision on a certain topic.
Presswork for initatives
This is a guide to successful presswork for initatives. It was created by the initative network "Wir machen Wien".
Public administration workflow-mapping for local initiatives
Mapping of relevant workflows within the public administration to identify critical points / steps.
Reflection of internal power relations
Methods such as reflection rounds on internal power dynamics reveal suppressed feelings within the group and allow roles to be redefined. This helps to break entrenched patterns.
Scientific evidence for specific demands
Initiatives are specifying their demands and backing them up with scientific findings (e.g., demand for 50 km of bicycle lanes by 2030).
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.
