1st REALLABOR OPEN HOUSE on October 10, 2024, in Berlin

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

At the intersection of science, technology, and everyday life, practices, prototypes, and innovative solutions are emerging to drive societal transformation toward sustainability. The growing metropolis of Berlin is also on the path to climate neutrality, aims to become a “sponge city,” and requires social cohesion in the areas of mobility and the heating transition.

In this context, StadtManufaktur Berlin invites you to the 1st Open Real-World Lab Day on October 10, 2024!

The Open Real-World Lab Day is supported by the Network of Real-World Labs for Sustainability and the Society for Transdisciplinary and Participatory Research (GTPF) and will take place nationwide in 2025: In the context of local, sustainable transformation, this event aims to bring to life the challenges, experiences, and successes of real-world lab work, transdisciplinary and participatory research, technology, and innovation in real-world labs in Berlin. We invite researchers, staff, students, and partners from TU Berlin and UdK Berlin to share their interests in transformation, motivations, solutions, and questions on this day. We look forward to your participation in the first and second parts of the day. Presentations, initiatives, infrastructure, and technologies can be showcased, tested, and discussed in the following thematic areas:

Climate protection, climate resilience, and climate adaptation

Energy, mobility, and the heating transition

Circularity, materiality, and the construction transition

Transformation knowledge, learning, and everyday practices.
