Street-Room-Experiments

Which street experiments exist in Munich, how do they work, who are the actors and what do they achieve? To answer these questions, we would like to offer a platform for the exchange of all those involved in street experiments in Munich.
Mapping Party
The openLAB Urban Mobility organises mapping parties on a regular basis to actively improve the quality of OpenStreetMap (OSM). OSM is the best-known example of an open-source database collected through crowdsourcing.
MCube Speaker Series
In cooperation with the MCube Cluster and the Transport Center of the Deutsches Museum, monthly lectures are held on the topic of "The Future of Mobility". The range of topics is wide and interdisciplinary. All those interested in the topic are invited, from laypersons to students and specialist audiences.
Module "Active Mobility"
The Active Mobility course is a module consisting of a lecture and a seminar. In both parts of the module the active mobility forms are put in the foreground, their strengths and weaknesses are discussed and the interactions with the built environment and other forms of transport are considered.
Urban Mobility PhD Colloquium
Within the School of Engineering and Design with its new Chair of Mobility Systems Engineering, we want to look at urban mobility from an interdisciplinary perspective. As part of the Interdisciplinary Research Platform TUM.Mobility, the PhD Colloquium Urban Mobility focuses on one of the eight fields of competence.
openWALKS
Within our openWALKS, we invite you to explore the connections and interactions between transport and urban development together with us. We would like to go on a journey of discovery with you, enter into dialogue with each other and develop ideas for the future of urban mobility. The openWALKS are offered during the summer terms.
