Agenda
| Time | Item |
|---|---|
| 14:00 – 14:20 |
Ethical Landscape Mapping Co-identify ethical risks and shared challenges across thematic Living Labs using visual canvases, symbolic objects, and guided dialogue. Participants cluster risks, name patterns, and highlight blind spots across micro (project), meso (institution), and macro (ecosystem) levels. |
| 14:20 – 14:40 |
Ethics Literacy Through Examples Build ethical literacy using external cases via Ethics Travel Cards, micro-scenarios, and metaphor sketching. Participants reinterpret cases from other ecosystems, extract principles, and compare levels of ethical maturity. |
| 14:40 – 15:10 |
Co-Creation Studio: Ethics-by-Design Framework Using prototyping materials, ethical personas, and future-casting prompts, teams design the micro, meso, and macro components of an ethics-by-design architecture. Output: a draft ethical roadmap and structural elements for governance. |
| 15:10 – 15:30 |
Collective Reflection & Commitments A reflective circle to consolidate insights and define next steps. Facilitator synthesises contributions and highlights cross-level connections. Each participant shares one commitment to implement in their Living Lab or institution. |
