Presentation Title
Reviewing the Structure and Function of Self-Described Living Labs
Keywords
community-engaged research; living laboratories; watershed
Description
“Living labs” have been promoted in recent years as platforms for engaged and locally-embedded research. However, the term itself is somewhat vague and applied in a large variety of contexts. Living labs have a wide variety of goals and functions and are perhaps even more varied in their organization structure. This poster provides a preliminary review of self-described living labs, characterizing both the types of functions they serve and their organizational structures, with the goal of identifying functions and structures appropriate for engaged research on and in the Wildcat Creek Watershed.
