Graduation project HvA & Centre for BOLD Cities succesfully concluded

Last February we welcomed HvA-student Pepijn Schoute to our Centre. Between February and July, he completed a graduation research project at our Centre. For the past three years, the Centre for BOLD Cities has been collaborating with the HvA (Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences) on a graduation project for bachelor students in Public Administration. 

This year's graduation project focused on our datawalk. Through action research, Pepijn gained insights into how our datawalk can make digitisation and big data more accessible to town and city councilors. His final project included an elaborate research report and the development of a series of short videoclips to introduce local council members to data and technology use in the city,

Thank you for your dedication, Pepijn and congratulations on your graduation!
