The Living Lab1 is a core learning method for a FairShares Lab. It brings potential users of a product or service into the same space as those who can produce and fund it. Living Labs, therefore, start from the same multi-stakeholder assumptions as the FairShares Model . Living Labs tend to be organised geographically, in districts, regions and cities, to promote co-production of community services. A FairShares Lab deploys Living Labs to design social enterprises that act as community services. Living Labs, theoretically, are an attempt to realise New Public Governance by drawing on a sociological / network view of design processes to achieve vocal plurality during decision-making. Whilst other participatory techniques are linked, Living Labs place more emphasis on experiential learning and practical engagement in design and testing.
