Abstract
This report presents the Sustainable Innovation and Entrepreneurship Methodology developed within the EU-funded InnoLabs project (2014–2016). The project aimed to establish student innovation laboratories that foster cross-sectoral, multidisciplinary approaches to complex societal challenges. Drawing primarily on practices from Aalborg University and insights from partner institutions in Latvia, Estonia, and Cyprus, the manual outlines organisational guidelines for integrating large, problem-based student projects into higher-education curricula. Key components include semester themes, project catalogues, group formation processes, supervision structures, and assessment approaches. The report consolidates experiences, templates, and examples to support universities in implementing and refining innovation labs as platforms for sustainable, co-creative learning and regional development.
