The Citizens Lab is a free dialog platform within the framework of the IAA MOBILITY 2023. The components of the Citizens Lab are the Dialog Arena (the Citizens Lab stage), a workshop area, exhibition areas and lounge areas. The aim is to bring people together on Munich's Marienplatz and to facilitate an open, solution-oriented dialog on the key issues relating to "mobility of the future". The Citizens Lab provides a platform for a wide range of innovations, products, and discourses on the question of how to make urban and rural mobility more climate friendly. The Citizens Lab is not a specialist event. The citizen-oriented dialogs and participation formats cover both, technological and social topics.
The Citizens Lab is a free offer to all citizens and stakeholders of the urban society and everyone visiting IAA MOBILITY can actively and constructively participate in this dialog about the future at the Citizens Lab.
The Citizens Lab is aimed at all citizens and stakeholders in urban society, as well as all IAA MOBILITY visitors.
