A City in Common - A Framework to Orchestrate Large-Scale Citizen Engagement around Urban Issues

Explore a conference talk presenting the 'City-Commons Framework for Citizen Sensing', a conceptual model designed to facilitate large-scale citizen engagement in urban issues. Learn how this framework, based on Participatory Action Research, integrates sensing technologies co-designed by citizens to address community concerns. Discover how the concept of a city commons—a pool of community-managed resources—forms the core of this approach. Examine a case study from Bristol, where communities utilized this framework to measure and monitor damp housing problems. Gain insights into the potential of citizen sensing for tackling local issues and fostering community awareness and action.
