Collaboration for a living lab for people toward low-emission food system development in Kenya

A living lab makes us think of a city or landscape as an open laboratory, a geographical space where scientists, policymakers, entrepreneurs, innovators, governance structures, and citizens can “plug in” to test and scale innovations, and new technologies, that still need to be made “field proof,” but in a real-life setting

A concept emerging in the 1990s mostly in Europe, living labs often were mentioned in the context of open innovation. However, to be applied in a different context requires adaptation for all theories and practices, so this applies also to the living lab when applied in Kenya.
