"Local Mobility Concept" game

Designed to give residents a tangible voice in mobility planning, this tool enables citizens to actively co-create future street and mobility concepts. Through hands-on interaction with wooden figures and modular street components, participants can develop and communicate their own ideas, priorities, and mobility measures for their neighborhood.

A shared digital ToDo-List to get you vision on track

There are several digital to do lists out there, that can help you as a group to organise projects, assign tasks, set deadlines, and track progress collaboratively. Trello is free until ten collaborators, wekan and kanboard are completely open source.

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.

Forecasting change

Some forecasting can't be done by looking into an weather app. This tool helps you to capture possible scenarios of what could happen in your neighbourhood.

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.

Public Engagement Onion

This tool inspires you what kind of participation methods are out there and the level of participation they allow.

Understanding your target groups

Card Sort is a simple yet powerful method for uncovering what matters most to your target audience. Participants rank a set of word or image cards by preference, quickly revealing key priorities and opening the door to deeper conversations about personal values and motivations.
