In September children go back to school, and therefore we decided to handle the topic of safety among the youngest of us on their way to school.
We organised the meeting in one of schools in Łódź. We decided to invite Konrad Strzelecki as the speaker, as he has successfully managed to propose traffic calming in the area of the schools his children attend to as part of community-led participatory budgeting.
The project „Safe City – a different way” is financed with a sum of 285 000 zł from Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein as part of Citizens for Democracy Programme (implemented by the Stefan Batory Foundation in partnership with the Polish Children and Youth Foundation) with EEA Funds. The project is aimed at increasing the influence of citizens of Łódź on decisions and actions, which are to ensure road traffic safety and quality of public space.
