On 16–17 October, the University of Bonn hosted a one-and-a-half-day Social Lab workshop conducted within the framework of the RE4GREEN project, funded by Horizon Europe. The event formed part of the project’s social lab methodology and provided a structured space for interdisciplinary exchange and collaborative reflection.
The workshop addressed key thematic priorities of Horizon Europe Cluster 6, with particular emphasis on urban farming, precision agriculture, vertical farming, and the bioeconomy. Participants engaged in a series of facilitated, discussion-oriented activities focusing on environmental risk assessment and the application of the Do No Significant Harm (DNSH) principle.
Fourteen participants from across Europe and beyond took part, contributing diverse perspectives and expertise. The workshop fostered a highly constructive and collegial environment characterised by openness, collaboration, and creative thinking. Through collective foresight and dialogue, participants explored prospective research ecosystems and generated a range of innovative ideas that will inform the future strategic direction of RE4GREEN.
We sincerely thank all participants for their valuable contributions and insights.
