Challenge
How can the cohesion among the residents of a neighbourhood be improved? Especially in a neighbourhood that has not grown together over decades but has been newly built, a digital application facilitates contact among people. That's why the city has developed a new module for the Winterthur app together with the residents of Neuhegi: a dedicated smart platform for the neighbourhood.
Solution
The goals of a smart city call for intelligent solutions for social exchange and economic benefit. One starting point for achieving this is the neighbourhood level.
Vibrant neighbourhoods in which residents contribute their resources and benefit from each other often go hand in hand with a certain degree of voluntary engagement (e.g. classic neighbourhood assistance, but also sharing or information dissemination).
