Short Course

Co-create the Future of Living

Join us in our Digital Camp on the Future of living! Together with housing corporation De Key we invite you to join in our Digital Camp to co-create the future of living and working. In short sprints, you will work together in a multi-disciplinary team to research, design and communicate a future vision on the Amsterdam area of the Knowledge Mile.

Why this Digital Camp?

Within the development of the Knowledge Mile, there is a focus on sustainability, working, education, but not so much on living. De Key is looking for a vision on living for the area, that is co-created by the various stakeholders involved, ranging from the municipality, designers, entrepreneurs and starters on the housing market.

You will work together in a small team, assisted by an experienced facilitator of Digital Society School who will guide you through all steps of the process, using methods from our Design Method Toolkit.

Details

The Digital Camp consists of 4 important days, where you will talk to experts, design and prototype a vision for the area and transfer all gained insights to the partner.
