3.4 Warm Data Lab for Changemakers

by Leapfrog Projects and Sitra
From 9:00 to 12:00

Decision-making in a complex world benefits from a dialogue where different perspectives are in dialogue with each other.

Warm Data Lab is a way to conduct a group discussion in such a way that multi-perspective and cross-border knowledge develops. It does not seek a common vision or a solution to a limited challenge, as in many workshops. Instead, the goal is to broaden each participant’s own thinking and ability to understand the changing world from different contexts. Your insights may surprise you. That’s why Warm Data Lab is also an experience.

At the beginning of the event, Nora Bateson, the developer of the Warm Data Lab and the founder of the International Bateson Institute introduces us to the world of Warm Data, after which we implement the Lab. The International Bateson Institute studies the connections within complex systems, and encourages and initiates projects that connect different social contexts.
