Agora Mediu

Agora Mediu 

The issue tackled by the platform is the inadequate transparency of plans and programs from various areas with environmental impact and non-involvement of different actors in the process of strategic environmental assessment. The objective is to work as a bridge between the authorities involved in strategic environmental decision-making and the citizens. The platform brings at hand, in one place, plans and programs from various areas with environmental impact and raises awareness regarding their impact and applicability. After 6 months of incubation process under the guidance of Impact Hub Bucharest and WWF Romania, on 13th of May, the platform has been launched.

CRUIS

The project “Connected road users for increased safety and optimized traffic flow” tackles the problem of maintaining the safety for all traffic participants and especially for the vulnerable road users (VRUs) in the context of the city’s mobility. The project is centered around an interactive application designed to facilitate communication between traffic users by providing customized warnings, suggestions, and required contextual information. The project is at the stage of the proposal, as it addresses the current mobility context from Iasi, negative externalities, and proposes improvements to develop the application based on smart infrastructure (with AI video cameras and sensors needed to sustain the application).

Easy Inclusion

ZERO+

When accessibility was first mentioned, it was allocated only to the target group of people with disabilities and as “access for people with disabilities” and “access for wheelchair users”. In ZERO + we test and prepare a certification for everyone. Self-awareness: business owners, community workers and passengers will sit in a wheelchair AND get to experience the streets, the shops and the entire infrastructure. Through self-experience we want to reduce inhibitions and accept deficiency as something NORMAL. In the ZERO + project, various everyday tasks have to be done. Something normal, but a challenge for wheelchair users/older people/prams. shopping different things, getting money from the bank, driving along the beach, visiting the office and checking different circumstances.

ZenParking Smart Parking

ZenParking Smart Parking

We believe parking in very crowded areas based on luck is not smart at all. We believe the civilised way is to use a reservation system, just like we use in medical sector private clinics and other services. Our device ensures reservation is kept. With a reservation system citizens gain time when they find a spot to reserve, and when they don’t they know enough in advance to use other means of transportation (ex: subway, bike, taxi). This reduces traffic and polution as well. With a smart system the pricing can vary easily. Fast parking areas with first 30 minutes put at a decent price and the rest made very expensive would encourage more citizens to use the same number of spots in crowded areas. Also, parking spots pricing can be used as a bonus to encourage other smart city directions – reduction of costs for people who recycle, or family with kids. We believe reservation is the civilized way of parking in very crowded areas!

Sibiu County Council

New County Hospital

The project of building a new county hospital for adults and children in Sibiu responds to the need for modern, holistic and high quality health services, with a design that ensures an adequate response to epidemics and other emergencies while integrating respect for the environment and the opportunities of digitalization. The current county hospital is hosted in 27 different buildings, the oldest ones dating back to 1857. In the absence of a Municipal Hospital, Sibiu County Hospital serves the 460.000 inhabitants of Sibiu county, as well as patients from neighbouring counties. The project is in an advanced stage. Sibiu County Council owns the plot of land for the construction and an environmental assessment confirmed the location is adequate for a public hospital. Initial urban planning permits have been obtained and the technical and economic documentation related to the feasibility study has been completed. The process of accessing European funding has been initiated.
