What is a Living Lab (also known as a “real lab”) at the ZHAW?

The ZHAW aims to be a Living Lab in which its staff and students conduct real-world experiments together and with the participation of other relevant stakeholders. Living Labs take real issues at the ZHAW as a starting point, contribute to sustainable development at the ZHAW and beyond, and generate and transfer context-specific system, target and transformation knowledge. The focus is on learning in an experimental environment and research in an applied context.
