The Mayor in the course
Today, in the “Digital Governance” course, we had the Mayor of Western Samos with us to plan how our students can contribute to the Digital Transformation and development of the island.
Our plans for this semester, which sparked the interest of our students, include:
- Creating Wikipedia pages for villages and attractions in Samos, by students.
- A study through surveys for citizens and businesses, along with good international practices, on cycling mobility.
- Actions promoting cycling and traffic education, by students. A pilot implementation with the 60 electric bikes expected in Karlovasi.
- A training program for the Municipality’s staff in the use of internet applications, by students.
- Free transportation and guided tours for students to Samos’ attractions, aiming to create “ambassadors” of the island in Greece and abroad (as suggested by Gian Andrea Paolo Garancini from Crete in a recent seminar).
Check out the work of our students from previous semesters:
- Digital Map with all the attractions of the Municipality
- Kontakaiika on Wikipedia
