Within the framework of the discussion on “Innovative Approaches to Urban Safety in Europe”, which brought together elected officials and experts in technology and security from across Europe, the Director of IT and New Technologies, Mr. Michalis Bourmpos, exchanged views with the Mayor of Ghent (Belgium), Mr. Marlon Pareijn, the Deputy Mayor for Security of Manresa (Spain) and Vice President of the Eurotowns network, Mr. Anjo Valenti, as well as with representatives from cities such as Barcelona, Liepāja, Naples, and Heerlen, representatives of the European programmes URBACT and EUROPEAN URBAN INNOVATIVE, and distinguished experts in the fields of smart cities and urban safety.</p><p>In his presentation, Mr. Bourmpos highlighted as an example of innovation the creation of the digital map of Piraeus on the global Minecraft platform, where young people participated in a game titled “Cops &amp; Robbers in Piraeus”, which took place simultaneously in both physical and digital environments and aimed to raise awareness on issues of crime prevention and social responsibility, leveraging the potential of technology and digital gaming as tools for education and participation.</p><p>Related links:</p><ul><li><a href="https://www.smartcityexpo.com">https://www.smartcityexpo.com/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/HVki4w3AGEM">https://www.youtube.com/live/HVki4w3AGEM</a></li></ul>

In the game, participants had the opportunity to interact both in the real world and in the digital world of Minecraft. In real-life Piraeus, the “villain” of the game moved around using a motorbike, while through GPS, the same movement was mirrored in the digital Piraeus within Minecraft. The players&nbsp;attempted&nbsp;to locate the “villain” in the Minecraft world, who left behind traces (beacons) when passing through specific locations in the real world. In this way, an interactive experience was created that combined reality with the digital gaming environment.&nbsp;</p><p>This initiative aimed to raise awareness among young people regarding crime prevention and to strengthen collective responsibility through the use of technology.&nbsp;The innovation of the game lies in the fact that it was carried out simultaneously in both the physical and digital worlds, allowing participants to experience safety and prevention in an engaging and educational way.
