The MyHood project was presented during the 2nd scientific conference “Participatory Design: Understanding and Changing the City (Public Space & Environment, Inequalities & Democracy)” co-organized by Participatory Lab, CommonSpace, and Green Fund. The conference took place on 20-22/10/2023 and the audience consisted of policy makers, environmental scientists, planners, educators and representatives from citizen initiatives. The audience showed particular interest in the topic of the MyHood project as it aims to bridge the communication gap between youth and local authorities and prioritizes the empowerment of the young generation to take action on climate change. Participants, mainly educators, also expressed their willingness to support MyHood activities such as Focus Groups for validation of the project’s tools.
