Session

How does the UN SDGs relate to what libraries deal with on a daily basis?

The architectural firm, Schmidt Hammer Lassen (SHL), has developed a playful method to translate challenges into tangible solutions under topic-card themes: Place, Space, Services, and People. This workshop will allow participants to share their challenges and experiences to work towards possible inventions which they can implement locally. Co-creating a series of topic-cards as resources for imagining the future potential of libraries.
