CITY SERVICE AS A City as a Service Last year PUSH joined UN Global Compact and UN World Urban Campaign as an associate partner, with the aim to extend its network and discuss, with a wider and international audience, our findings. It was quite interesting to see how our approach on tools and strategies to trigger urban innovation in marginal contexts was far from their view and we were really surprised noticing how curios they were about the results of our “unconventional” projects. So we applied to the Urban Thinkers Campus international call with the ambitious program of “City as a Service”: a double appointment to think, prototype and share all those digital solutions able to transform the urban spaces by changing services and citizens’ experience. The event will be made by two different appointments: the Intensive School in Erice in late September and the Urban Thinkers Campus, that will take place one week later in Palermo. caas.wepush.org We were selected and we are one of the 29 organizations selected world wide to host the Campus. We never thought our tiny lab would have had this big opportunity. The Palermo Urban Thinkers Campus is not only our biggest event ever, it’s also our first step as main actors in the international debate about the future of our cities.
