Zurich meets Seoul: Women and the City

Bringing the future into the present with VR

Urbanisation is a megatrend. More and more people around the world live in cities, making them the most influential players in a globalized world. New forms of networking and mobility in smart cities are turning urbanity into a new way of living and thinking.

The more diverse minds participate in the planning of smart cities, the better and more holistic the result will be. Today, however, urban development is dominated by men, leaving much potential untapped.

The EWHA and the ZHAW are therefore developing a VR game to encourage women to participate in the development of smart cities. For the game to work around the globe, we need the inputs and ideas of a diverse, multi-cultural audience. We need you!

At the event, we will playfully collect ideas from the audience that emerge in the interaction with the experts. We will use your input to make this project a success.
