FLEXIMODO - Development of a modularized scenario workshop method
The FLEXIMODO project is one of the Training and Dissemination Schemes Projects (TDSPs) supported by the Community's INNOVATION programme. The project is aimed at increasing the flexibility of the successful "European Awareness Scenario Workshop" (EASW) methodology, both in terms of the range of subjects which may be dealt with and in terms of the workshop duration. Within the EASW, a platform has been developed to support and facilitate the active participation of societal groups on technological developments concerning the sustainable development of cities. This has resulted in a fully tested, ready-to-use package for local scenario workshops on the subject of "urban ecology", and the constitution of a group of trained National Monitors. In addition to the subject of "urban ecology" of the initial EASW phase, FLEXIMODO aims to develop and test scenarios on the following subjects: - Urban mobility; - Local information provision; - Urban regeneration. For all these areas, suitable support material will be developed to facilitate the performance and the transfer of the adapted flexible methodology and the new scenarios.
