The Urban Lab 1: Living with the city and Urban Lab 2: Planning Policy and Infrastructure courses were implemented from January until May 2023. In the first phase of the challenged based learning, the students engaged in the Tulli area by listening to inspirational talks and interacting with diverse stakeholders. After that the groups framed a relevant challenge they wanted to solve during the course. The challenges varied around different themes such as winter design, cultural impact, social interactions, noise and light pollution, and green spaces, taking into account social, environmental and economic sustainability. After investigating their challenges and acting to develop a solution, every group produced a poster presentation of the outcome. The posters were showcased in May 2023 in the Tullintori Shopping center.
A selection of the posters is shown below (click a poster to view a PDF). In the coming weeks, we will be posting blogs written by the SUD students, where they reflect on their experiences working together – and with people outside of the university – to develop their ideas for the Urban Lab.
