The Workshop
Urban Delivery Fresco is a collaborative dialogue workshop designed similar to the Climate Fresk methodology that brings together non-experts (citizens and residents) and experts (logistics professionals) to discuss urban delivery challenges. Created to support urban logistics planning and development of sustainability charters, this workshop shares the complexities of goods transport in cities through expert-designed interactive animation that engages diverse stakeholders in collaborative problem-solving.
Why It Matters
Urban logistics - the transport of goods in cities - creates significant environmental impacts including air pollution, congestion, noise, and greenhouse gas emissions, while supporting essential commerce and services. Understanding these challenges is essential for residents, business owners, and logistics professionals to collectively identify sustainable solutions. This workshop is vital for building shared understanding between these groups and developing consensus on policies and practices that can reduce environmental impact while maintaining economic vitality.
Good to Know
The workshop typically lasts 2-3 hours and creates space for dialogue between citizens and logistics professionals. It shares the interconnected challenges of urban delivery through interactive discussion guided by experts in urban logistics. The format allows both the general public and professionals to participate, representing an innovative approach to engaging different stakeholders - residents concerned about quality of life, business owners dependent on delivery networks, and logistics companies seeking efficiency improvements.
What to Expect
The workshop brings together mixed groups of citizens and logistics professionals in a structured dialogue format. Through guided discussion and interactive elements designed by logistics experts, participants share perspectives on urban delivery challenges including congestion, environmental impact, and last-mile delivery logistics. The process builds understanding of different stakeholder perspectives and identifies common ground for collaborative solutions that can address environmental concerns while supporting economic needs.
