The transformation of our forms of production to make them environmentally and socially sustainable is perhaps the greatest challenge that all countries of the world are facing today. 

How to collect data?

This is a real-life experiment. Workers, researchers, engineers, and designers will work together to create a plan to transform some exemplary production processes. 

Are there more people at the department involved in this project?

Ragnar Lundström from the department is part of the project. 

What do you expect for results ?

We expect that these experiments and the process through which they will have realised can serve as an example for the real transformation of production processes. 

What will be the biggest challenge?

The biggest challenge is to find enough volunteers to embark on such an endeavour. 

What will be the most fun?

To work together with colleagues from different disciplines and with non-academic workers in different production sectors.
