📋 Tender Overview
Objectives
The ULALABS project aims to define a theoretical and practical framework for the implementation and operation of a European distributed Living Lab focused on urban challenges and climate change; a "Lab of Labs" perceived as a shared and interconnected R+D+I infrastructure among HEI partners to promote transformative innovation policies within and among European regions through the articulation of open and collaborative Learning Communities and shared Agendas.
Activities
ULALABS will centre its activities around the development of the Learning Communities as key elements of the distributed Living Lab model, offering support and learning opportunities during the project. The pilot programme will be the focus point of the activities that will allow the testing and demonstration of i) the potential for cross-case learning between partners, communities and regions, as well as ii) for Distributed learning, where shared knowledge is generated ad-hoc among partners.
Impact
The project is expected to produce:
- a catalogue of innovative best practices on urban innovation labs and distributed models and on learning toolkits offering skills to tackle climate change in urban environments.
- a series of methodological guides for the implementation of distributed learning communities and lab infrastructures.
- an articulated and distributed learning community around open innovation labs that can continue its operation beyond the granted project.
