Happy [XXX] Lab : A prototype to celebrate, engage and catalyze city transformers

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

What happens when you put a social change leader, a local serial entrepreneur, a wellbeing artist, a kaospilot and a facilitator into a three-story house with a big garden in a city without internal nor external pressure to change (the capital of Switzerland) - for the duration of a summer with a mandate by the mayor of the city and a support network of over 300 leading Swiss companies to come up with an innovative approach to sustainable development?
Join us in the exploration of what we are learning and see emerging in this playful, rebellious and immature experiment to build a prototype for city transformation that is self-sustainable (offering a Universal Basic Income to the inhabitants of the lab), transferable (inspired by a playbook of shared experiences) and transitionary (with a clear expiration date to avoid new dependencies). Imagine what is possible if we connect like-minded experiments around the world to learn together in how to most effectively mobilize people to transform their world, starting with where, how, with whom and why they live?!
