What is Future City Game?

Future City Game is a two-day event during which inhabitants of your town — from different backgrounds and representing different disciplines and outlooks — assemble with one common aim: generating the best ideas of how to improve the quality of life in your city. Encouraging creative thinking, energetically addressing the challenges facing your city, seeing your city in the context of common issues facing cities like yours from around the world, and finally making peoples’ lives better… this is what Future City Game is all about.

The Game is a competition to identify the best possible ideas addressing long-term challenges facing your city. After presenting your initial ideas, you will then test them in real life by meeting with local community members, experienced practitioners, and city administration. Your idea could be anything — a policy, service, product, building or behaviour — but it must be innovative, forward-thinking, relevant to the local community, and finally, achievable and sustainable.

Future City Game will

provide an imaginative and creative tool to stimulate ideas for a sustainable city
provide personal, social and professional development opportunities to aspiring urban influencers and innovators
stimulate networks between people from different disciplines and cultures
broaden the number of people involved in shaping the future of cities.

Why play Future City Game?

It is an opportunity to meet like-minded peers from various backgrounds in your country and from across Europe, learn new skills, add value to your CV and have a say in important decisions made about your city.

It is fun. While the topic under discussion is serious, the gaming elements serve to make the process enjoyable and fun.

Unlocks problems — the game provides you with the freedom to find unconventional solutions to complex issues.
