To contribute to the discussion, Keolis is holding a series of conferences during 2023 in partnership with Usbek & Rica (an online media that explores issues for the future). Dubbed “Tribunals for the Mobility of Future Generations”, these conferences take the unusual form of a fictional trial by jury. On stage, a judge presides over the proceedings, accompanied by a court clerk. Three expert witnesses successively take the stand, to be questioned by the prosecutor and the counsel for the defence. Five jury members are then chosen randomly from the audience to deliver their verdict. The “jurors” are also asked to explain their reasoning — an approach that reflects the complexity of the issues debated and enables us, as spectators, to further our own thinking. By tackling sensitive issues and exposing diverse viewpoints, these fictional trials are designed not to accuse or lay blame but to challenge preconceived ideas. The overriding aim is to encourage public discussion about the future of mobility. This is aligned with the approach developed by Keolis through its Keoscopie observatory: analysing today’s practices to shape the mobility of tomorrow. If you had to decide on behalf of future generations, what would your verdict be?
