Process phases

Ideas and projects will be developed at Climathon Zurich 2022. The teams upload their projects to Decidim by November 6th.

The climate challenge set by the city of Zurich can also be tackled by further persons and teams outside of Climathon. By participating to the participation process, you will have the opportunity to receive feedback from city experts, gain visibility and potentially have the opportunity to present your project to a city committee or at one of our upcoming Klimaforum gathering.

City experts as well as Stakeholders are invited to give feedback and share their inputs to the teams and projects in order to support the further developement of the projects.

This phase enables the teams to incorporate the feedback from experts and to revise the project proposals. To do so, teams can directly adapt their proposals in the Klimaforum Online platform.

In this final phase, the 8-12 projects with most interactions are selected to present to city of Zurich committee. It will likely take place during the annual Klimaforum Event at the end of March 2023.

Rethink Zurich’s parcel stations

How might we turn the SalüBox into a lively place for goods exchange & last mile logistics?

About this process

How can people be motivated to use the SalüBox, that the SalüBox is perceived as fun to use? How can we make the space around the SalüBox more attractive, that people stop, have a chat and it gets more of a lifely spot? How can especially the older population be motivated to give it a try with the SalüBox? 

Short challenge description:

With the SalüBox you can: 

  • receive parcels and goods,  

  • exchange things with friends and neighbours 

  • send parcels 

The SalüBox can therefore make your life easier, it can connect you with other people nearby and help local shops to improve their service by collecting things around the clock in the SalüBox. 


But not only that! By using the SalüBox you can reduce CO2 emissions, noise and traffic, because things do not need to be delivered to your door. You support circular economy by exchanging goods with the help of Salübox.
