MICADO – Digital Solution for Migration Challenges

How can digital products support arrival processes of migrants and refugees as well as simplify the work processes of public authorities?

To answer this question, Digital City Science from HafenCity University (HCU) Hamburg showcases the results of the Horizon 2020 project MICADO, which was successfully piloted in Hamburg, Antwerp, Bologna and Madrid in 2021. After the platform´s live demonstration, a roundtable with representatives of the European Commission, European cities and civil society organisations will outline the requirements for the successful local uptake of digital solutions developed in EU-funded projects
