In these environments urban innovations can be tested with citizens on a small scale before being implemented at a larger one. Through applied research, different stakeholders co-create, develop and test solutions in urban areas.
Working with critical societal partners as Living Lab case owners, we will set up, run and monitor social experiments across different societal settings to explore ways to make sharing and repairing more common across Dutch society.
By working in real-life co-creating settings the solution is shaped and reformed continuously. This is made possible by gathering feedback in real-time over the course of the project. With the solution already tested and reformed in a real environment, adoption on a larger scale later will happen faster and more smoothly, leading to a larger immediate impact on the city’s environment.
