Student Initiatives for Reimagining Cities
In Amman, two competitions were organized to encourage students and universities to reimagine cities sustainably, particularly in the urban strip area between the Station and Raghadan stations. The university-level competition saw the participation of 11 teams from local and international universities, who developed solutions to issues such as congestion, poor connectivity between pedestrians and transportation modes, water accumulation, flooding, and urban heat islands. In the school-level competition, 97 students from 16 schools participated through digital models using the "Minecraft Education" platform to address challenges related to sustainable transportation, energy, waste management, and green spaces, with the goal of tackling the impacts of climate change. The initiative aims to engage youth in real solutions to urban and climate challenges, emphasizing innovation and sustainability, while enhancing their capacity to contribute to rebuilding greener and more resilient cities.
