Living Lab Methodologies Workshop
Living Labs are real-live research environments addressing urgent societal questions in a particular setting and involving a plethora of actors in experimental practices of co-creation towards “community resilience”. The aim is to identify challenges and develop responses together with those concerned for instigating positive change. This workshop, organized by the KTH School of Architecture for the European network JPI CoNECT will explore Living Lab methodologies together with international guests.
Time: Fri 2024-09-13 10.00 - 16.00
Location: Hägerstensåsens medborgarhus, Riksdalervägen 2, 129 32 Hägersten, T-Bana Hägerstensåsen
What evidence exists about how the approaches of Living Labs (LL) play out – do they perform as intended? How are knowledge and skills mediated in LLs? This open workshop gathers researchers and practitioners for exchange, who have explored Living Lab methodologies together with a diversity of actors across Europe. The workshop addresses questions of different scales of engagement and impact, LLs’ temporal horizons and their scales from local practices to the reproduction of knowledge and skills, to policy levels. The presentations and workshop follow the evidence of LLs which take various forms: ethnographic, functional, socio-economic, environmental, performative and artistic.
