Transformation experiments
The WueLAB sustainability laboratory offers stakeholders from science, culture, society and politics the opportunity to get involved in projects on the topic of sustainability, to collaborate or to initiate their own project ideas.
One focus of the project work is the so-called transformation experiments (overview below), which aim to develop sustainable action into best-practice examples. Transformation options from a wide range of social and application-specific areas are examined on the basis of scientific processes and procedures and, in the best case scenario, become models. The interdisciplinary approach and working methods are the key to success here.
A major concern is to address both the "global player" and the citizens of a region and to motivate them to contribute their own experience and individual expertise in order to contribute to new solutions for the culture of sustainability.
