In dem selben Sammelband hat Michael Schneider in Zusammenarbeit mit Erik Höhne, Carolin Alippi, Elisabeth Borne und Oliver Scharf einen Beitrag verfasst: „User Centered and Sustainable Local Mobility – A Participatory Approach in the Neighbourhood“.

Summary: With the neighbourhood concept developed in the ZED Lighthouse, the actors involved are not only trying to meet the growing demand for local mobility through a research mobility station with neighbourhood caretaker as well as age-appropriate e-scooters and autonomous boxes for e-scooters. Rather, this concept also opens up perspectives and offers all the necessary aids for older people to be able to live in their familiar neighbourhood – and thus also to keep the neighbourhood itself structurally stable. With the help of user-friendly and participatory technology devel-opment, those affected are involved in the creation of new (socio-)technical solutions. The blueprint from Zwickau-Marienthal creates new perspectives, especially for large housing estates with homogeneous age structures, to bind their residents to the neigh-bourhood in the long term and to keep the estates liveable and lively into old age.
