The MoU was signed by representatives of two partners – Tuija Hirvikoski on behalf of ENoLL and Phil Donaldson on behalf of ALLIN. With the MoU we aim to strengthen our engagement with Australian Living Labs Network. The two networks have come together with the common intention to collaborate and develop the global Living Lab community. With the MoU the two parties seek to foster a close relationship which will occur through: • Relationship building activities by exchange of information on opportunities and joint projects, attendance of key events and conversations with other potential partners in the region • Meeting standards and values of ENoLL • Co-organisation of a Regional Summer School ENoLL Council Chairman Fernando Vilariño has commented on the MoU stating that “ENoLL is supporting a vision of Europe as a Lab open to the world, a place for exploring how the living lab multi-stakeholder citizen-centric approach -a human centric approach- can contribute to innovation-led growth and positive societal transformation”. He added that his “personal commitment is to work hand in hand with the Australian Living Labs in this vision for the democratization of the access to knowledge and innovation to everyone, empowering our living labs and their communities as effective instruments for socioeconomic impact and change: together we will definitely bestronger”.
