Citizen participation

Citizens were at the core of all activities ranging from outreach, information, participation to co-creation. Different partner institutions were invited to use the SIMmobile as their outreach platform. Workshops for kids were held by the Science Pool and a new "Energy Quiz" was developed together with the "Umweltberatung" and used for interaction with kids and adults. Major events were held in front of the SIMmobile. The SIMmobile also served as a platform for surveying general public or targeted public, such as pupils from a school before its refurbishment.
