Access to Mobility & Urban Space
Von Hamtramck und South West über Eastern Market bis North End – Detroit bietet ein breites urbanen Spektrum. Doch inwiefern unterscheidet sich die Zugänglichkeit innerhalb der urbanen Räume der Stadt? Die Bewohner*innen und ganze Stadtviertel spüren die Auswirkungen der Entwicklungsprojekte, die die Stadt zu einem Zentrum für Innovation gemacht hat – ob zum Guten oder zum Schlechten. Die re:publica Detroit diskutiert Ideen und Visionen zum Thema Zugang zu Mobilität und urbanem Raum.
Ein paar Fragen, über die wir nachdenken: Welche Rolle spielt die Zugänglichkeit zu städtischem Raum für die Bewohner*innen der Stadt Detroit? Wie können wir Zugänglichkeit und Teilhabe für alle Communitys und Stadtviertel, insbesondere für die, die es am dringendsten benötigen, gewährleisten? Welche Entwicklungen müssen eintreten, sind aber noch nicht eingetreten, und welche Projekte führen zu Gentrifizierung? Welche Rolle sollten die öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel in der Zukunft Detroits spielen? Inwiefern fördert die Umsetzung einer „24-hour economy” und die Abschaffung von Sperrstunden die urbane Zugänglichkeit? Und was hat zugängliches Recycling mit Stadtentwicklung zu tun?
Detroit hat die niedrigste digitale Integrationsrate des Landes. Wie werden die Personen, die sie am meisten brauchen, Zugang zu Transportdienstleistungen wie Uber, Lyft und E-Scooters finden?
Beim Thema Mobility & Urban Space gibt es viel zu lernen und wir heißen kritische, kreative, akademische und künstlerische Beiträge aus allen Disziplinen willkommen. Stadtleben und Mobilität der Zukunft sind Themen, die uns alle betreffen – egal ob du ein Fahrrad oder ein Auto fährst, in einem Vorort oder im Stadtzentrum wohnst.

- Mobility & CityAccess to Mobility & Urban Space-Autonomous driving, electrified vehicles, sharing platforms and many more digital innovations already changed the way we move. But this was just the beginning. In this session, we're taking a hard look at current mobility innovations and how they revolutionize the way we move, live, and how they foster access – of transportation modes, of places and much more. We want to look at the mobility of the future from different perspectives to discuss solutions that work for everyone.
- Business & InnovationAccess to Mobility & Urban Space-How well do we know our food, and the people who made it? In this session, we’re looking at access to food in Detroit and beyond - and the struggle of turning dependency into sovereignty.
- Mobility & CityAccess to Mobility & Urban Space-The problems of transportation begin with how (single-use, low density) urban development patterns have generated excessively long travel distances to jobs and other daily needs that can then be reached only by automobile. This has reduced the likelihood of having good/successful/affordable public transport or being able to bike or walk to our destinations, and reduced the access of the ones who really need it.
- Mobility & CityAccess to Mobility & Urban Space-What are the hidden logics at play in the housing crisis? Why are financiers & private equity funds BUYING UP MODEST HOUSING COMPLEXES? How can something as material as a building turn into intangible assets, and why is an empty apartment sometimes a better asset than its use as a home? Who are the players and what are the factors that make housing one of today’s most pressing world issues? And how can one hold governments accountable if they don’t meet the human rights obligations?
- Mobility & CityAccess to Mobility & Urban Space-Conventional placemaking strategies privilege the values of practitioners and inaccurately reflect the needs of the communities they seek to serve.
- Mobility & CityAccess to Mobility & Urban Space-This session will explore the increasing use of surveillance in the city of Detroit, a majority black city through the Project Greenlight Program and facial recognition technology, and how a coalition of organizations in Detroit are challenging the city's use of this technology.
- Mobility & CityAccess to Mobility & Urban Space-Many native Detroiters of Diasporic Afrikan ancestry have experienced economic violence and structural racism that has resulted in years of cultural/physical displacement as well as deep emotional trauma. When cultural identity and legacy is displaced so is one's sense of place. This action seeks to address one's ability to change their emotional state and their subsequent social mobility, through the use of storytelling and place-based cultural programming.
- Mobility & CityAccess to Mobility & Urban Space-Detroit is a large metropolis but because it is disconnected, it is less dynamic and innovative than it should be. As this region contemplates being a leader in new mobility technology, how should we invest in our own mobility options? How can new ways of mapping help bridge divides and describe a future that is broadly appealing? This talk will explore some realistic transit proposals in view of the ongoing work of the Regional Transit Authority and how we can describe them visually.
- Mobility & CityAccess to Mobility & Urban Space-Our Disability-Led Design workshop demonstrates what it means to engage in disability as a creative practice, and teaches designers how to integrate disability-led design methods into their own processes. This experience will enable designers to develop a more complete understanding of disability identity and culture, and the creative opportunities these offer. It will also challenge them to think more critically about who we include in the futures we imagine and the systems we seek to create.
