Public engagement

Fem personer sitter vid ett bord och har en diskussion

Public engagement in future mobility solutions has been identified as a priority for governments, industry and other stakeholders in order to reap the expected societal and business benefits linked to the new technologies and services.

After seeing the challenges associated with this, we have highlighted the need to develop methods and collaboration models that aim to engage users in contributing to how sustainable mobility solutions of the future are developed. Users must be part of the process of creating new mobility solutions through user-involving innovation methods.

How Drive Sweden works with Public engagement competence network

We gather different stakeholders and use experiences for everyday life as a starting point to create realistic solutions and opportunities to cross -fertilize different knowledge and perspectives from Drive Sweden partners. This creates a unique, dynamic holistic view.

Public engagement also raises questions about accessibility, ethics and socially responsible development. And Drive Sweden is a powerful platform to create deeper understanding between product and community developers, decision makers and the people who are potentially affected by the technology.
