chemnitz city lab

A special concern of the European Capital of Culture Chemnitz 2025 is to “involve citizens more strongly again in the active design of their living space and thus create opportunities for exchange, dialogue and innovation.”  The Chemnitz City Lab is therefore dedicated to sustainable urban and regional development. It is a laboratory of citizen participation, a human-oriented and future-oriented field of experimentation with the goal of community development of the city and region of Chemnitz under social, economic and regional aspects. This experimental field is a contact point for citizens’ concerns and invites them to ask and discuss specific questions on topics such as urban development and housing, mobility and local transport, culture and nature in the context of urban development.
