IIID Mobility and Transport Forum 2020
6th - 8th November 2020
Navigating the City
Information and mobility design for high-density multilingual environments.
Cities have many faces, and they are a conglomerate of multiple entities compressed into a density that is highly challenging for the people who live and work there. High diversity in population, a multilingual environment, the gap between digital possibilities, and the reality of travel experiences are currently shaping our cities. In this context, under the theme of navigation, solutions that make travel easy and enjoyable for everyone are essential components in defining a city. The conference in Mumbai is a call to understand individual perspectives on navigating and “using” the city, and how the quality of the mobility experience will be shaping city life in the future.
Date and Venue:
6th to 8th November 2020

Your Presentation:
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:
- 20-minute presentation: We have reserved 30 minutes in total for your presentation. Please aim for a 20-minute presentation so there is time for questions and comments from the audience.
For the new format of a digital conference we will get in touch closer to the conference date about the online presentation format. In any case we expect supporting slides.
Presentation quality:
- A good rule of thumb for most people is 1 slide for every 3 minutes of presentation.
- Make sure your slides are readable. In general, nothing below the 18pt type is going to be readable by anyone not in the first few rows. 24pt and up is usually safe.
- The basics for good presentations are described in “Power Notes” by Per Mollerup, available on the IIID website. http://www.iiid.net/per-mollerup-powernotes/
