 Waarschuwing: 
 Dit is GEEN eenvoudig toegankelijke podcast aangezien Jeroen en ik ingewikkelde materie van abnormale situaties evenement proberen te vertalen naar de reguliere situatie op het spoor. We hebben geen enkele illusie dat we alles behandeld hebben. 

Het is wel een leuke podcast en het gesprek wat verder ging dan: 

het sneeuwt, blaadjes op t spoor, marktwerking, etcetc.

Bij het werken aan de Stad van de Toekomst knelt de traditionele aanpak van mobiliteit en verkeersinfrastructuur. De laatste jaren worden makers van mobiliteitsbeleid dan ook geconfronteerd met een enorme verbreding van vraagstukken waar zij rekening mee moeten houden. De (gezonde) bodem, de fysieke netwerken, de vitale stad en de (circulaire) economie, een samenhangende structuur in die vier lagen levert uiteindelijk de wijk van de toekomst. Hoe gaan we zorgen dat dat allemaal goed gaat functioneren? Wat gaan we doen met het verkeer? Waarom maken wij nog mobiliteitsplannen separaat? We kunnen niet langer beginnen bij mobiliteit die op zichzelf staat, maar moeten beginnen bij die waaier aan vraagstukken die allemaal terechtkomen in de stad, bijna letterlijk in de straat.
 
 In een korte serie van vier podcasten komen vier vakmensen aan het woord, die ieder vanuit hun eigen perspectief systeemdenken verbinden aan praktische oplossingen. Zij zijn ook te zien in de documentaire De Stad van de Toekomst – een blik op mobiliteit, die op vrijdag 6 oktober om 11 uur te zien is op Innofestival in Amsterdam, marine terrein. Via deze link kan je je gratis aanmelden om de film live te zien en in gesprek met makers te gaan achteraf. 
 
En hier luistert u naar het uitgebreide interview met Debbie Dekkers, innovatiemanager bij stedelijke innovatie gemeente Amsterdam, over de betekenis van sociale waarden voor innovatieve mobiliteit.
