Co-Creation Workshop in Bordeaux, France

On the 21st October, the laboratory ETTIS of INRAE, the University of Bordeaux – Business School of Economics and AugmentCity organized a co-creation workshop in the city center of Bordeaux with 20 participants among citizens.

At this stage of the project, the aim was to study how the deployment of a digital twin can influence the understanding of issues linked to climate change and the decision-making process in terms of risk management and adaptation to make the region more resilient.

Taking the Bordeaux metropolitan area as a case study, two deliberation workshops have been organised to enable participants to discuss and work on scenarios illustrating the risk of flooding and its impact in terms of mobility in the conurbation.

The aim of these workshops was to involve a group of citizens (including residents of the metropolitan area, experts, scientists, members of environmental associations, etc.) in the co-construction of solutions to concrete challenges linked to climate resilience. They have also been used to assess the effectiveness of the digital twin as a problem-solving tool, by visualising the issues to be tackled.
