Project

During my stay in Olot I would like to collaborate with people interested in increasing the processes of experimentation and social cooperation in the territory. Through a workshop we will explore what a citizen laboratory could be like in Olot, that is, an infrastructure that facilitates collaboration and experimentation among anyone interested in developing projects that seek to improve life in common. It is about creating a place where people with different profiles, ages and origins can get together. How to facilitate collaboration between public employees, professionals, neighbors, artists, scientists, engineers or activists?
