Open Labs Without Borders: Why Cross‑border Collaboration Matters (CIVIS Days 2026) Open Labs Without Borders: Why Cross‑border Collaboration Matters (CIVIS Days 2026) ===================================================================================== - Communication and Dissemination - Civic engagement - Audiovisual materials - Academics - Researchers - Civil society - Policy makers While Open Lab projects usually start from local challenges, they can grow stronger when they connect across borders. This round table illustrated this through three concrete project experiences and will discuss the benefits, the hurdles, and the lessons learned. During this CIVIS Days 2026 panel, speakers shared how they collaborate with each other and with communities, and we’ll explore how international cooperation can spark new ideas, boost local engagement, and inspire future initiatives. **Projects and speakers:** ***Veris — Voices of Palmyra*** - **Patrick Michel,** senior lecturer - University of Lausanne - **Wasfi Al Nassef,** intercultural mediator - JRS Romania ***Ageing as a journey*** - **Daniel Buhr,** professor - Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen - **Johanna Berglund,** development officer - City of Stockholm ***All year long CIVIS open lab Music Ensembles*** - **Daniele Gorla,** associate professor - Sapienza Universita di Roma **Moderator:** **Kenneth Skeldon,** CIVIS Open Lab Coordinator - University of Glasgow Learn more about our civic engagament projects on our dedicated pages.
