TRACK A: Co-developing Myllypuro Campus (Workshop + Walking Tour)
In this co-creation workshop participants are challenged to brainstorm and develop ideas about stakeholder cooperation in the suburban district of Myllypuro, where a new Metropolia campus is being built. The workshop presents a participatory design concept that was created for Live Baltic Campus and the first Livable City Forum. Immerse yourself in creative team work, join a stakeholder role play around a map and take this method back to your home city in the form of a toolkit poster!

The ways to include the higher education campuses in the area into a collaborative network and to create joint study modules between them?
