Citizen labs, landscape and sustainability
From Wednesday, 2 November 2022 to Friday, 11 November 2022
November 2022
Our landscape is undergoing unprecedented transformation. The world is fluid by nature, but the pace of change has increased exponentially in recent decades. This has given rise to complex social and cultural changes in the communities that inhabit the planet.
Garrotxa is no exception. This territory, so unique in terms of geological, social and environmental aspects, requires new approaches to favour adaptation to today’s challenges.
Citizen labs can serve as an extra cog in the problem-solving machine by creating communities, giving value to people, discovering new solutions to current challenges, and other expressions and solutions to the challenges created by the transformation of our current landscape. At Faber, a group of experts in citizen labs and new methodologies for social intervention will co-create and discuss solutions to the global challenges that affect us at local level.
