A Hands-On Sensemaking & Co-Creation Session
What happens when students help design the future of urban mobility? On 13/03/2026 , we welcomed a group of students from Anatolia College to the Living Lab of CERTH/HIT for an engaging, hands-on sensemaking and co-creation session centered around the MobilAir Project.
Rather than a passive demonstration, students became active participants in the process. Through a series of collaborative activities, they explored how green urban mobility tools can be designed to truly serve citizens — bringing fresh perspectives and genuine curiosity to the table.
During the session, participants contributed valuable ideas across three key areas: navigation, environmental impact awareness, and user experience. Their input offered important insights into how the MobilAir application can better reflect the real needs and expectations of everyday users.
This visit is a vivid example of what the Living Lab model is all about: breaking down the walls between researchers and the people who matter most, the users. By inviting students into our research environment, we create a space where innovation is shaped not only by experts, but by the communities it is meant to serve.
We are grateful to the students and their teachers for bringing their energy, ideas, and openness to our lab. Their contribution is a meaningful step in co-creating a greener, smarter urban mobility future for Thessaloniki and beyond.
