Ort: Lebensministerium, Stubenbastei 5, 1010 Vienna

The Scientific Workshop will be held to discuss the scientific underpinnings of both optimistic and more pessimistic views about the compatibility of economic growth and sustainable development (e.g. substantial reductions in resource use).

WORKSHOP FORMAT

BarCamp is an open and participatory unconference.  BarCamp workflow has similarities with the Open Space method, but loosely organized. BarCamp approach is successfully used around the world in various sectors.

SciBarCamps are Barcamps that focus on scientific issues. The SciBarCamp “Growth in Transition” consists of presentations and discussions (sessions) that are self-coordinated by the participants in the morning by using pin boards. That means there is no elaborated agenda, though there are certain rules to follow. Active participation is required - it is not requested that each attendee holds or guides a presentation, however everyone is expected to take part in discussions, to opt for sessions, to ask questions, etc.

Basic idea: informal knowledge sharing.

POSTER SESSION

Participants of the SciBarCamp “Growth in Transition” are invited to bring posters, or to design them on the spot. An exhibition of posters will take place during the SciBarCamp.

SCHEDULE

Depending on the number of attendees, there are up to six rooms available.

17.15-19.00:  Welcome-Drink for all participants and start of the conference registration.

The workshop will be held in English.
