== Strategy #2 Raise participation at the campus through a community app<br/> ==
The following prototype attacks the problem of low participation at the university campus. The missing commitment of students leads to diverse problems at the campus, this is why we want to raise awareness for problems and ideas!
The prototype is an app which is based on a community voting system. Every student, staff or professor can log in with their university account and participate. Important is the inclusion of every member at the university. After logging in one has the possibility to post an idea or a problem which is bothering them on campus. Differing from “We don´t have a space for personal projects” to “University Mensa is to crowded to eat between lectures” and “I want to build a makerspace!”. The different ideas or problems are then listed in a feed and are presented to the community.
The advantages are that people are not “alone” with their problems and when getting support from the community a highly voted problem might start a change making project.
On the other side, it is a good indicator for decision makers what the actual atmosphere at the campus is.
Important to mention is that the feed is moderated in order to maintain on a friendly basis, hence the platform does not become a place of hate speech.

Problem: Identified problems on the campus -> Outcome: What bothers the university?
