International Conference | Knowledge Transfer in and through Living Labs
24 – 26 June 2024
RWTH Aachen University | SuperC
The TRANSFER project, funded by the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research (2022 – 2025), and the Living Labs Incubator of RWTH Aachen University cordially invite the Living Lab community, including scientists and engineers from across the disciplinary spectrum, city makers and managers, social and technical innovators, entrepreneurs, industry representatives and policy-makers, to join us in Aachen from 24 to 26 June 2024 for an international gathering. Over the course of three days, we will explore the topic of knowledge transfer conceptually and in practices. Tailored to community needs and geared towards inspiration, learning and exchange, the program will include keynotes, academic and practitioners’ presentations as well as interactive sessions, on-site visits and art-based exploration.
Deadline for Proposals: 15.03.2024
Around the conference, from 24 – 28 June 2024, we are also organising an international Training School on the same theme in collaboration with Politecnico di Milano. The Training School is specifically designed for master’s and PhD students of different disciplines as well as practitioners keen to talk about and to reflect on their experiences. In interactive workshops, reflexive sessions and group challenges, we will address and explore Living Lab methods, formats and indicators for knowledge transfer. The second attachment (Call for Participation) contains all relevant information. Applications to the Training School are also welcome by 15 March 2024.
