THE TRANSITION DAYS - OUR INSTRUMENT FOR CONNECTION AND ACTION

The world in transition. From fossil to sustainable or from waste to raw
materials, to name some. Amsterdam Smart City is working on better streets,
neighbourhoods and cities for the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area, focusing on four
transitions: Mobility, Energy, Circular Economy and Digital City. We don’t do
this alone, but together. What is the role of Amsterdam Smart City in these
transitions? How do we ensure better streets, neighbourhoods and cities?

A world in transition requires an independent place where changemakers can meet,
enter into dialogue and collaborate. A place where companies, knowledge
institutions, governments and societal organisations come together to work on
the city and region of the future. And that's our place. We are that open and
safe space for collaboration and innovation, and we are always trying to
encourage this even further. We do this together with our partners and community
using a number of instruments. We regularly highlight one of these instruments
on our platform: the Demo Days. But there are more, and one of the most
important will take place soon: The Transition Days (Dutch: De Transitiedagen).

The Transition Days are annual events that take place in the autumn. The
Amsterdam Smart City core team organizes this for and together with the
partners. This is the moment for the partners of Amsterdam Smart City to share
with each other on which issues and ambitions they will focus in the coming
year. Can common ground be found and which coalitions can be made? You cannot
work on a transition alone, which is why it is important to find parties with
whom you can tackle these issues together. We create the connections between
parties to ensure that innovation can take place.

The Transition Days 2021 will take place on 25 and 26 November.
These two days will be all about previous results, ambitions for the future and
new connections. Under the guidance of our partner RoyanHaskoningDHV, the
Amsterdam Smart City team enriched by masterclasses devised by the network, our
partners are provided with enough inspiration and energy to turn their questions
into successful collaborations. Which will lead to the improvement of the
streets and neighbourhoods in the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area.

Due to the pandemic, the Transition Days 2020 took place online. A selection of
the questions that were brought in then:

 * How do we keep the more conscious mobility choices post-corona?
 * The maximum reuse of items and materials at circular waste points.
 * Scaling Government as a Platform (GaaP)
 * Zero Emission Mobility in Hubs

You can read exactly what these issues entail in our report.

WANDELEN IN AMSTERDAM LANGS DE DIGITALE SPOREN VAN DE SLIMME STAD

Wandel op 12 december mee langs de digitale sporen in Amsterdam en ga in gesprek
over data, sensoren, en camera’s in de openbare ruimte. Kan een stad slim zijn
of moeten we juist inzetten op slimme burger; smart citizens?

Wat wordt er aan data verzameld en wat gebeurt daarmee? Kun je je nog onbespied
wanen in de publieke ruimte van mijn stad? Hoe ziet de ideale digitale stad van
de toekomst er volgens jou uit?

Digitale infrastructuur

Ooit bestond de stad uit bakstenen en staal, gebouwen en wegen. Maar steeds meer
is deze infrastructuur vervlochten met een digitaal netwerk dat alles verbindt.
Deze digitale sporen vind je overal. Ze helpen ons de stad en haar inwoners
steeds verder in kaart te brengen. Tijdens de smart citizen-wandeling kom je
deze sporen tegen. Van slimme bewegwijzering die ons leidt, tot camera’s die ons
volgen. Je gaat in gesprek over de relatie van bewoners met de technologie in de
stad en wordt uitgedaagd je aannames te bevragen en toekomstideëen te delen.

Wanneer: 12 December
Starttijden: 14:00 uur en 15:00 uur
Startpunt: Amsterdam CS, IJ-zijde West
Eindpunt: Tolhuistuin
Nodig: goede schoenen, opgeladen telefoon, flesje water
Afstand en duur wandeling: 
Amsterdam: 
5,3 km
 - 1 uur en drie kwartier

Meer informatie

Bij het startpunt van de wandeling krijg je informatie over de wandeling en
ontvang je een wandelpakket met een routekaart en gespreksmateriaal voor tijdens
de wandeling. We starten gezamenlijk, daarna wandel je in kleine groepjes, met
max 4 mensen. Bij het eindpunt word je ontvangen met koffie en thee. Je kunt je
aanmelden met vrienden, of meewandelen met iemand die je nog niet kent en je
laten verrassen!

MEET THE MEMBERS OF AMSTERDAM SMART CITY! MANON DEN DUNNEN: ‘NEW TECHNOLOGY
FASCINATES ME, BUT SOMEHOW I ALWAYS END UP SEEING THE DARK SIDE’

Manon den Dunnen is the Dutch police force’s strategic specialist on digital
transformation and co-organiser of the IoT Sensemakers Community.

“The IoT Sensemakers Community has over 7,000 members worldwide. Our members
share knowledge and experiences about Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and AI.
IoT plays an important role in the smart city, as sensors are often used to make
the city smarter. We believe you should do this in a responsible manner.”

“In the offline world, we fight discrimination and exclusion, but digital
solutions introduce new forms of discrimination and exclusion that undermine our
constitutional values. This may be caused by poorly chosen sensors (check out
this viral video of the ‘racist soap dispenser’), the algorithms used in ‘smart’
applications or by data being unnecessarily collected and stored.”

“Sensemakers joined forces with Waag, Sensing Clues, Ombudsman Metropool
Amsterdam and the City of Amsterdam to use sound sensors to analyse the noise
nuisance in the city centre. At Marineterrein, a test area for creating liveable
cities, we are now testing a sound sensor that can classify different types of
noise. The sensor does not store data, but labels the different types of sound.
A few years ago, we also tested sensors for measuring water quality, and we’re
still testing indoor air quality.”

Tinkering with technology
“Every first Wednesday evening of the month, we meet at the Amsterdam Public
Library (OBA) Makerspace to tinker with technology. People can work on their own
projects and discuss their ideas with the likeminded, but they can also start
learning with Arduino or 3Dprinting. We also organise lectures, for example with
Schiphol Real Estate about smart buildings and with designer Anouk Wipprecht
about robotic wearables like her Spider Dress. Next month, Armando Lucrecio from
Amazon will join us.”

“We just celebrated our 10th anniversary and are working on a lot of fun little
projects. I really love the diversity and creativity. Recently, someone built an
insect recogniser. We had an older volunteer in a care institution who wanted to
program games for the elderly on a care robot. That evening, a teenage boy came
to learn how to build a robot car. They were helping each other. I love that
serendipity.”

“A lot of technology is supplier-driven. But as a society—as buyers of these
solutions—we are insufficiently trained to ask the right questions to truly
assess this new technology and its long-term risks. We sometimes even forget to
critically analyse the problem we’re dealing with, overlooking obvious low-tech
or no-tech solutions. With my work for Sensemakers, I hope that we all become
more critical and have a network we can consult.”

If you’d like to get in touch with Manon, you can find her on this platform.

This interview is part of the series 'Meet the Members of Amsterdam Smart City'.
In the next weeks we will introduce more members of this community to you. Would
you like to show up in the series? Drop us a message!

KIJKEN VOORBIJ DE FLORIADE | GROEN & GEZOND ALMERE PODCAST SERIE 3!

Een groene en gezonde wereld begint in je eigen stad. Nergens in Nederland
bouwen ondernemers en bewoners van zo dichtbij mee als in Almere. Verhalen van
deze bewogen Almeerders hoor je in de podcast ‘Groen en Gezond Almere’.

Het is alweer tijd voor het derde seizoen, waarin Floriade Expo 2022 centraal
staat, want die staat voor de deur! Het gebied rondom het Weerwater staat in de
steigers, de groene loper wordt door de stad uitgerold. Maar wat houdt de
Floriade nou precies in? En nog belangrijker: Wat blijft er allemaal over ná het
evenement? De podcast wordt gepresenteerd door Kookboekenschrijfster, TV-kok en
vooral betrokken Almeerder Nadia Zerouali. Nadia bespreekt de fysieke impact van
de Floriade Expo op onze stad en spreekt met gebiedsontwikkelaars,
energieleveranciers, bruggenbouwers en landschapsarchitecten.

Luister de eerste afleveringen van de podcast via Spotify, Soundcloud & Apple
Podcast

Groen en Gezond Almere is het programma van de gemeente Almere waar jij mee kan
bouwen aan de groene stad van de toekomst. Een groene en gezonde stad bouw je
namelijk niet alleen, maar samen. Het platform laat lokale Almeerse initiatieven
en projecten zien die de stad verduurzamen en klaarmaken voor de toekomst. Een
inspirerend palet aan stadsmakers!
