Urban Lab Madrid | Workshop 1 ‘Experimental cultural public policies to strengthen the commons’

Building on the experience of Media-Lab Prado, one of the handshake partners of Urban Lab Madrid, this hands-on workshop gathered together 25 leaders of previous citizen labs to co-design and implement a new prototype of a citizen laboratory, which aimed to overcome the limitations and challenges of previous experiences.

Outcomes

As a result of the workshop, the ideas and outcomes formed during the sessions have been implemented in a range of activities and events organised by Urban Lab Madrid throughout 2020.

The citizen lab prototype has been implemented in public schools in the district of Vallecas (Madrid) in collaboration with Fablateka – a fablab working with young people at risk of social exclusion to support them in achieving professional qualifications. After the workshop, a number of members of the FabLab were trained as mentors to lead the implementation of the citizen lab taking place across 6 schools in Vallecas.
