“…In this sense, it is essential to ensure the liability of the SW initiating body, the quality of the participatory process, and the reliability of the SW results (Eshkol & Eshkol, 2017). Literature includes a range of smart participatory methods and tools aiming to capture the feelings and habits of people through their shared digital reactions (Salvia et al, 2021) and on purpose-made online platforms (Lissandrello et al, 2019). In any case, the scope of these participation methods and tools may support but not replace physical gatherings.…”

This article presents and discusses the results of the Stakeholder Workshop (Co) Designing for Quality of Life: Exploring Challenges and Opportunities, which was held at Middle East Technical University (METU) in Ankara in October 2022 in the framework of the COST Action CA18137 European Middle Class Mass Housing (MCMH-EU). The workshop aimed to discover the possibilities of participatory design as a tool to address the necessary updating of the housing complexes of the Modern Movement (MoMo). The workshop, which was conducted on a cooperative housing estate, namely Ümitköy Sitesi, Ankara, Türkiye (1970), was carried out in five groups with members of different nationalities, ages, and experiences. This article argues that the public and private strategies which were followed to rehabilitate these complexes by focusing on the technical problems (construction pathologies, energy inefficiency, accessibility, parking, among others) tend to neglect, even ignore, the diverse social aspects involved. As a group of participants of this workshop, the authors of this article consider the involvement of all parties (experts, residents, housing management cooperative, and municipality) in the improvement processes of such middle-class mass housing sites as the key instrument to make these neighborhoods more inclusive and sustainable. This article evaluates the Stakeholder Workshop’s co-design performance as an instrument to improve the Quality of life (QoL) and sustainability of the neighborhood. The critical analysis of the workshop results leads to several significant conclusions: Social aspirations do not always coincide with political and technical ones; technical rehabilitations are not sufficient for the total improvement of QoL and sustainability of communities; (Co-)Design may have to be approached from different perspectives and, consequently, have different results; citizens have a great potential to participate and contribute to the improvement of QoL with innovative ideas and actions of different scales. However, the socioeconomic diversity of the inhabitants and restrictive legislation are the difficulties to be considered.

“…Focusing on the city as an administrative entity enables us to study internal organizational processes and to point out evolution and drivers in the decisionmaking mechanisms (Tran Thi Hoang et al, 2019). In addition to the traditional innovation processes in public administration, some authors also highlight emerging practices such as co-creation with citizens (Lissandrello et al, 2019) in parallel with related new organizational models (Mattsson, Sørensen, 2015).…”

“…Innovation processes in these organizations are complex (Grimaldi, Fernandez, 2017) and often open (Karvonen et al, 2018). They deal with uncertainty (Rauws, 2017) and are based on a learning process (Lissandrello et al, 2019). They are traditionally looking for sharing and exchanges about ideas with citizens, the media, or other public institutions, which potentially leads to public debates about the level of their priorities or added value.…”

“…MUV's change-oriented practitioners engage citizens through a gamified interaction (Di Dio et al 2018), shape local communities, and arrange new partnerships with local businesses, policymakers, and Open Data enthusiasts in six EU cities neighborhoods (in Amsterdam, Helsinki, Barcelona, Palermo, Fundao and Ghent). Societal values related to mobility guide new visions for more sustainable, safer, inclusive, and healthier future scenarios and urban innovation (Lissandrello et al 2018) with an impact (Caroleo et al, 2019). This paper does not aim to assess the success of the MUV project in achieving more sustainable urban mobility in urban planning; instead, it focuses on the learning experience to elaborate further on the idea of planning for a future technology-driven urban democracy.…”

This paper investigates mediated negotiations in 'smart city' experimentalism. As often claimed, data can open pathways for innovative planning processes. However, the idea of planning underpinned by the interplay between citizens and data too often remains unquestioned. How might we move the idea of planning from data to providing (technical solutions) to data to transform (urban societal realities)? How can data empower citizens as true drivers of transformative urban change? This paper argues for a planning perspective to enhance a new sense of citizenship in a future technology-driven urban democracy. The framework combines planning theory with theories of societal change under a critical pragmatism. The empirical research derives from Mobility Urban Values (MUV2020), a Horizon 2020 innovation and research project (2017-2020), with the ambition to change mobility endeavors towards a more participatory and sustainable urban policy. The paper synthesizes analysis of the 'practice stories' of professionals dealing with and facilitating the interplay between data and citizens in six European cities. It then discusses MUV's deliberative planning process in which citizens generate data (cocreation of values), interpret data (co-design of facts) and perform utterances to call for new urban policy (coproduction of actions). The conclusions draw a possible pathway to enhance smart urban planning as a perspective to empower citizens with data for a progressive democracy in the era of digitalization. Changeoriented practitioners can potentially facilitate smart urban planning through: 1) technological devices that engage individual citizens (choices) with data practices in everyday life; 2) frames for the interpretation of data with citizens' and communities (practice); and 3) public conversations between citizens with other publics (system) for new street-level practices of urban democracy.
