In the third session we'll think together about the ways that tinkering involves a sense of co-creation. We'll hear participants’ and facilitators’ voices and discuss how we can support personal expression and engage with communities. We'll consider how the pandemic has provided challenges and opportunities for an inclusive practice.
During the second workshop we'll meet some artists, scientists and makers from around the world and see how their approach can inspire our explorations. We'll try out a hands-on activity together and reflect on different ways of describing the goals and outcomes of the tinkering experience.
In the first session of the Workroom we'll get to know each other, try an open-ended activity designed for online tinkering workshops and discuss how the pandemic has changed and complicated tinkering projects, programmes and environments both online and in-person.

In this first session of “Imagining futures for informal science learning” we will take inspiration from Keynote speaker Dr. Frederic Bertley.
Ecsite is looking for a designer to develop the visual identity, communication tools and website for a new EU-funded project - TechEthos.
TechEthos’s overall approach is to engage in and facilitate stakeholder dialogue and stimulate research on technologies with high socio-economic impact and the ethical challenges they might pose. TechEthos will reinforce and extend the European Union’s role as an ethics trailblazer in new, emerging technologies.
