Purpose / Description

During the implementation of the project, our goal is to promote active and sustainable methods of transport among the citizens of Debrecen, while collecting transport data directly from users that can help city management in decision-making. In addition, we aim to support local businesses by giving them the opportunity to showcase their products or services through the challenge’s web interface.

Process / Execution

Participants in the DebrecenMob project can join a new challenge every month from September to the end of the year.

The challenges are accessible via a smartphone with internet access, targeting Debrecen’s population and employees of larger companies in the region. The core of the challenge is to reward participants for using active and sustainable transport methods. Large local companies can also compete, encouraging their employees to participate actively.
