1:00-5:30 PM “Cities Reinventing Themselves” – Teams Giving Back to Paris
Working in small groups, we will disembark across Paris to lend our collective expertise in proposing solutions in support of projects currently underway in the city. Participants will work in brigades on projects that are of interest to the citizens of Paris and beyond, and encompass our themes of open research, education and/or social impact.
These projects are built around the following themes:
- Mapping the wisdom of the city- engaging mobile devices to assess qualities ranging from the physical to the spiritual
- Reinventing Democracy – exploring ways for the city to better connect with its citizens and create greater political/civic participation
- Green Technologies – leveraging big data and green technologies to make Paris a city that produces its own green energy
- Participant Centered Research – imagining new ways to engage Parisians in medical research to speed up the research process and increase its breakthrough potential
- Novel Education – involving 21st century learners in the reinvention of schools & universities as ecosystems of a cooperative construction of knowledge where the knowledge acquired by one facilitates the acquisition of knowledge by another
6:00-9:00 COCKTAIL RECEPTION – Cities Reinventing Themselves
Our afternoon activity will culminate with a reception and a debriefing of our hands-on experiences working in the city. Each team will have the opportunity to showcase the outcomes of their efforts, with a focus on tools and techniques employed and lessons learned. The city of Paris has made the Salons de l’Hotel de Ville (City Hall), available to the Assembly for the evening. This a 14th century palace and municipal building is a truly fabulous venue, located in the 4th arrondissement.
