Citizen involvement, or involving residents in what is going on in the city, is another key function of the organizational unit.
Smart Písek planned an event called Head in the Sand for this aim, which allowed individuals to visit places they would not ordinarily be able to visit. Because to the high level of interest in this event, it will be held again in 2022.
Head in the Sand (Hlava v Písku)
Head in the Sand organized trips to a new water treatment plant in Hradiště, a municipal heating facility, and a wastewater treatment plant for individuals who were interested. They also went to the Vydlaby landfill's garbage sorting operation and the composting plant in Smrkovice. A guided bus journey through the Písek Mountains or a visit of the Portyč cinema building, which also functions as a shelter and more, provided an unforgettable experience. On Thursday, October 28th a lecture by Václav Cílek, a well-known scientific popularizer, geologist, and climatologist, was held in the city library as part of the weekly series, and it was a huge success.
