... and what an inspiring evening it was: After a stimulating keynote speech by Mark Harrison, who challenged us to rethink the design of mobility systems and everyday objects, our interdisciplinary student groups presented their work on current challenges of mobility (in)equity. The aim of the seminar was to bring together research findings in the context of a social intervention. The students were extremely creative and developed a website, a magazine, comics, and bookmarks: Take a look at their work here.

Bringing together lived experience, scientific reflection, and practical expertise created exactly the kind of dialogue that the seminar aims to promote. We are very grateful to everyone who accompanied us on this journey and contributed in any way to the first round of the seminar.
