Expanding and Innovating Public Spaces in Ingolstadt: Suggestions for Future Advancement
In the heart of Bavaria, students at the KU Eichstätt-Ingolstadt are set to present their vision for the future development of the Ingolstadt region. On July 23, from 10 am to 1 pm, these talented minds will share their ideas at the Zukunftscampus of the KU, located at Hohe-Schul-Straße 5, Ingolstadt.
As part of the "Future Security in the Region 10" project, the students have been developing concepts for the rejuvenation of key areas within the city. These areas include Schleifmühle square, the southern entrance to the old town, and the KU Zukunftscampus.
Their proposals address four critical aspects: economy, health, social participation, and democracy. To foster a vibrant economy, the students aim to enhance the southern entrance to the old town, making it more attractive for both residents and visitors, thereby supporting local businesses.
To encourage social interaction and community engagement, they plan to redevelop Schleifmühle square into a multifunctional space suitable for cultural events and accessible to all. The KU Zukunftscampus is envisioned as a hub for innovation, research, and education, fostering collaboration with local industries and promoting sustainable development.
For a healthier community, the students propose integrating green spaces, pedestrian zones, and bike-friendly infrastructure to encourage active lifestyles and wellbeing. Lastly, they emphasise the importance of democracy by incorporating participatory urban planning processes, giving community members, including students, a voice in shaping the city's future.
Interested parties who wish to contribute to regional development are invited to attend this event. Registration is required by email to [email protected], and the presentation will be held in English. The event aims to network, discuss further steps, and continue the ideas developed.
