Festivals as Living Labs for System Innovation
Experiences from the interdisciplinary innovation programme DORP
The use of Living Labs is a promising approach to develop and test sustainable system innovations. A Living Lab approach that is yet to be discussed in literature, is that of a Festival Living Lab (FLL). Festivals can be considered as temporary mini societies with systemic sustai

Physical learning environments’ supportiveness to innovative pedagogies
Students’ and teachers’ experiences
Research into the relationship between innovative physical learning environments (PLEs) and innovative psychosocial learning environments (PSLEs) indicates that it must be understood as a network of relationships between multiple psychosocial and physical aspects. Actors shape th

Festival Living Labs
Involving the Festival Community in Sustainable Experimentation
For a radical transformational change for sustainability, design requires an integrated approach, whereas designers have to contextualize their design from product and service level (micro) to integration in the socio-technical infrastructures (meso) towards the societal landscap

Participatory design or co-design is defined as the active engagement of all
stakeholders in a design process. However, in many co-design projects, only end
users are involved. Participants are often considered as the traditional
representatives of a generalized stakeholder group
