The call for the seventh edition of the “Miradas de las Ciudades Mexiquenses” festival invites young residents of the State of Mexico to produce short films that address urban challenges such as mobility, sustainability, and inclusive communities. Organized by government and academic institutions, the initiative seeks to engage youth in shaping better urban futures through creative expression. This effort highlights the intersection of civic engagement and digital media, encouraging participants to use mobile devices to document and propose solutions to local urban issues. By focusing on themes such as community action and environmental impact, it fosters dialogue on sustainable urban development. The relevance to open data lies in the potential for these student-produced videos to serve as qualitative, visual datasets. They provide unique, community-sourced insights into urban perceptions and lived experiences. Such crowdsourced creative work can inform urban planning and policy, demonstrating how public participation enriches the understanding of city dynamics beyond traditional statistical sources.
