Watch what was going on during the last ECIU Challenge at UniTrento
15 ECIU students from Trento, Barcelona, Aveiro, and Stavanger, grouped into four teams, took on the "Alpine Smart Working challenge" in order to promote coworking spaces in mountains areas and fight against the abandonment of peripheral territories. In recent years, peripheral territories have often been considered dormitories, from which people commute daily to city centers. In the worst cases, people have to leave home in order to stay near their place of work. Small coworking spaces offer an alternative: people spend less time driving, thereby also contributing to reducing traffic and pollution, and don’t need to relocate to city centers, thereby improving their work-life balance. The demand of workers for a flexible way of work is steadily increasing in this period: we are observing a growth in resignations, due to a bad life-work balance, and a switch to a “remote-first” approach by more and more companies. Developing smart working is also a priority project for some PA, and Provincia Autonoma di Trento has recently approved its own strategic plan and developed the “InCooperazione-Coworking” project.
Students worked in interdisciplinary and diverse teams hosted in a coworking space in Mezzana, Val di Sole, where Cooperazione Trentina, Trentino Social Tank, and ImpactHub Trento (the challenge providers) followed the development of the solutions.
The “Valley Workers” team composed of Sofia Greganti, Rewanth Radhakrishnan, and Sofia Gurskaia won the competition proposing "workations" a new way of doing vacations that allow you to work remotely and include training, group work, and team-building initiatives while visiting Trentino. The students were supervised by Alessandra Scroccaro (UniTrento) as the contact person for the challenge (teamcher) and were guided by two mentors from an ECIU university, Sanaz Masoumeh Shahverdi and Timothy James Marshall of the University of Stavanger (Norway). The video was entirely created, produced, and post-produced by Syed Ali Aqib, an ECIU Student from the University of Stavanger.
