Our Walk

Our Walk is VOLCANO's participatory tool for mobilizing and engaging citizens in urban development.

Digital participation

Our Walk is an application by VOLCANO, a consultancy that specialises in community placemaking and citizen engagement. VOLCANO uses the app to invite people to take photos that express how they feel about the places that surround them. Users can then react to other people’s photos, allowing us to map how people perceive their surroundings.

Legacy

The app builds on the Urban Belonging app, developed as part of Anders Koed Madsen’s Doing Data Together project. It was redeveloped by VOLCANO and Backscatter in cooperation with DIGIT srl. The original app was developed by Iain Kettles, designed by Marcos Cisneros, and was in turn inspired by the Snappthis app by Marije ten Brink. The original app is open-source at urbanbelonging.com.
