H+Forest Live and Learn festival
Are you interested in the future of places for learning, environment, and methodology? Do you want to explore how we create sustainable places where living and learning coexist in new ways? Then, welcome to H+Forest Live & Learn Festival.
Time: Thu 2024-09-12 09.00 - Fri 2024-09-13 17.00
Location: Kräftriket (12th September), Accelerator (13th September)
The H+Forest project embodies an interdisciplinary research-based exploration aimed at reshaping the future of sustainable living and learning environments through co-produced knowledge, particularly focused on university campuses. At its core, H+Forest integrates Sustainable Behaviour Goals (SBGs) with design processes to foster environments that both reflect and promote sustainable lifestyles. This initiative is distinguished by its collaborative approach, bringing together over a hundred students from Swedish institutions (KTH, LTH, and Chalmers), along with researchers, architects and designers, to co-define SBGs and translate these into spatial concepts and narratives for a new future.
During the H+Forest project, we collaborated with two campus-based Living Labs: HSB Living Lab and KTH Live-in-Lab. This collaboration was pivotal in gaining a comprehensive understanding of students' everyday lives through both qualitative and quantitative data. By immersing ourselves in the daily routines and experiences of students, we were able to collect detailed insights into their living patterns, energy and water usage, and waste management practices. This data was crucial for evaluating and refining the sustainable living solutions being developed.
The H+Forest Live and Learn festival is the endpoint for the research project H+Forest where an interdisciplinary team and students in multiple workshops will continue to co-create the future campus as a sustainable model for societal transformation.
