At the request of the Sabadell High School “Institut Sabadell”, around 100 students around 13 years-old received a presentation on Triangulum on 8 and 9 April. First, a general presentation on the Sabadell Follower City Implementation Strategy (FCIS) was given, describing the ten actions under implementation and the philosophy of replication from Lighthouse Cities.

Moreover, there was a focus on two of them that were more related to education centres: “Green mobility to schools” and “Maker spaces”. Students could give their view on how to improve green mobility to schools, making specific suggestions related to favouring the use of soft mobility means.

Finally, a live demonstration of a laser cutter machine was performed at the classroom which has been purchased by the municipality as part of Triangulum, and which is one of the main tools for “maker spaces”. On the second day, the students visited the municipal fleet of sustainable vehicles, also purchased as part of Triangulum, and were demonstrated the use of e-bikes, e-motorbikes and e-cars for the maintenance of public spaces of Sabadell, as well as for the use of the Municipal Police.
