Audience Q&A: 15 minutes synAthina is an online-offline public platform where the City of Athens supports citizens in developing and implementing projects that improve the quality of life in the city.

A network of nearly 450 social impact groups have shared  almost 4,000 activities on the online platform. According to the synAthina manager for the City, the project’s greatest contribution has been fostering a creative and collaborative ecosystem that engages both civil society and Athens's municipal government to face the city’s challenges in innovative ways.  Case study: https://collective-intelligence.thegovlab.org/case/synathina

    City of Lakewood Sustainable Neighborhoods Program (with Jonathan Wachtel)

    When city planner Jonathan Wachtel got tired of being able to do no more to thank residents for making good suggestions about how to achieve sustainability goals, he decided to find a way he could help them to implement their own ideas. Since the program launched in 2012, more than 20,000 residents have participated in more than 500 events, workshops, and projects, which have increased the city's tree canopy coverage, reduced waste, conserved water, and improved energy efficiency.
