- 6. Advanced hybrid storm water management system ● Vuores hybrid storm water management system is one of the largest in Nordic countries. ○ Central park system was built 10 years ago ○ combines grey and blue&green infrastructure ○ retention ponds, swales, wetlands, stream, alluvial meadows ● 2017-22 Vuores is a frontrunner demonstration area in EU NBS project ○ Aims to develop further area’s NBSs ○ monitor NBS performance/impacts in North ○ develop NBS governance (e.g. living lab) ○ develop NBS business
- 7. Innovation: Multi-functional NBS Urban Challenge in North, climate change is bringing more rain & City of Tampere is growing and densifying -> Solution NBS that retain and purify storm water & offer recreational areas & enhance biodiversity 3
- 8. Development of Vuores NBS during UNaLab Innovation vouchers to encourage residents to develop small-scale NBS: horse paddock, community gardens ○ Bioswale, Alluvial meadows, Biofilter, Retention pond Improved accessibility to urban nature NBS awareness raising: signs, events, social media, school cooperation Online water monitoring Learning together
- 9. Engagement activities with quarduple helix 4
- 10. Engagement activities with quarduple helix ● Online survey and Vuores portal: communication with residents ● Three NBS workshops: visioning – ideating – testing; bringing quarduple helix together to learn together ● Doing together: workshops to build gardening boxes, bird and bat houses; guided nature walks; teaching school kids to monitor water ● Activities led by other actors than City/Unalab: horse paddock, planning and building community gardens ● Building technical NBS, monitoring system and solving problems: cross- sectoral expert cooperation; communicating results in articles and seminars
- 11. guided nature walks workshops to build gardening boxes, bird and bat houses teaching school kids to monitor water giving space for other actors to arrange activities joining other events in Vuores Doing together Research regarding impacts of NBS and co-creation
- 12. Living Lab governance model and roles 5
- 13. Unalab project driven NBS living lab in Vuores ● Urban living lab management and organisation of activities 2017-22 ○ Project manager and planner in Unalab, City of Tampere ○ Project partners: VTT, Ramboll, ENoLL ○ Resources to engage stakeholders, realise NBS, monitor and communicate results ● Engageing into existing structures to promote long-term ULL development ○ City of Tampere. Planners and builders have been involved in the project, which has created new relationships, knowledge and new working methods. ○ Existing NBS. Multi-functional parks in Vuores have attracted Unalab and are going to attract also further R&D&I. ○ Vuores service. Vuores has this special actor owner by city and local housing companies. Unalab has been relying on Vuores service in communications (Vuores portal) and events ○ Vuores school have e.g. adopted water/biodiversity monitoring as regular program of 4th grade studients. ○ Stakeholders have been involved in the project, which has created new relationships, knowledge and new working methods.
- 14. Financing models / business model 6
- 15. Various sources of funding ● City of Tampere ○ Public parks and storm water systems ○ City has just started to collect storm water fee, which gives more resources ○ Collaborative and participatory elements are included in regular urban planning ● Construction companies and house owners ○ NBS in private land ● Unalab ○ Resources to develop NBS living lab 2017-22 ● Other projects and external funding ○ Attractive front-runner area works as a trigger for R&D&I ○ Universities, NGOs and also companies participate these projects ● Business for private sector ○ so far private sector has sold product and services to public sector ○ new NBS products and services are developing, maybe also new business models ● Voluntary work ○ school, residents and other urban actors have capacity to in private and public areas
- 16. Lessons learnt in Vuores living lab 7
- 17. Lessons learnt from Vuores NBS living lab ● To make urban living lab impactful and long-lasting, it is useful to integrate it to existing structures. ○ Other R&D projects, existing events, actors and communication channels ○ Participatory and collaborative urban planning, which is required in legislation. Short term projects such as Unalab, offer extra resources to develop business-as-usual processes. However, short-term projects easily remain marginal from long-term institutions. ● NBSs are about infrastructure, and it is important to think how different stakeholders are engaged to this rather technical topic ○ Bring experts and local residents together and give time for mutual learning. If we go too fast to detailed planning and actual implementation, expert voices may overrule citizen voices ○ Residents are experts in local conditions and how NBS can support well-being ○ Also educational aspect and NBS awareness raising have been fruitful. Climate change driven problems and NBSs are complicated, and there is demand for knowledge in all levels
- 18. Next steps / goals 8
- 19. Next steps of Vuores NBS living lab ● Put up monitoring program ○ water, biodiversity, health and wellbeing etc ○ ict-tools to visualize and communicate results ● Mobilize project results into long-term city processes ○ new methods in building multi-functional NBS ○ new methods in engaging stakeholders ○ utilizing new relationships and knowledge ● New projects? ○ health and wellbeing ○ biodiversity ○ other NBS related topics?

Editor's Notes
- (ENoLL will facilitate this slide, and give a very brief few sentence introduction to start the webinar - usually a few minutes late, to allow participants to join)
- Introduction: what is this presentation about? (previous examples: “experiences with LLs for public administration”, “Living Labs for improving air quality”, “drop-outs in Living Labs”) > Think about adding a personal touch! Maybe, introduce a question you’d like the participants to think about during the presentation and to come back to during the Q&A, or tell a personal story about yourself/the experiences of your LL that relates to this topic. Or maybe take the opportunity to share a lesson learnt, achievement, or challenge you’ve faced in this area!
- Here, you can introduce an example of a project, activity etc. that shows the element of ‘real-life environment’ in your LL. How is your LL operating in the ‘real-life environment’? > Practical examples are best, and depending on the time you can spend here you can focus on one or give an overview of several different ones! The key element of ‘real-life setting’ as explained by the ULL framework In an ULL it is important to know the physical setting in which the innovation will be implemented to be able to develop a solution that supports the context. In this process it is important to get a view of the physical prerequisites for the context and its potential. Here, answering these questions and analyzing the possibilities and challenges in the context is relevant from an ULL perspective. A place is formed both by its physical environment and by the pattern of events that people experience there. It is important to gain insights into features of a place: geographical location, material form, and investment in value and meaning. Hence, when it comes to understanding and designing environments of different types, we need to focus equally on their location, the structure of the environments, and on the activities that take place there

- > Here you can think about, for example: What is the innovation you are working on / have reached? What were the challenges that you focused on? What solutions have you reached? The key element of ‘innovation’ as explained by the ULL framework Most innovations emerge from gaps between existing solutions and human expectations. This process can be driven by the technological possibilities, societal needs, human needs or an inventor’s visions. Thus, to innovate means to create something new and different and to be creative. These innovations can be services, products, processes and/or brands, but in general it means that a need is met by new means. Working with innovations is expensive, risky and time consuming. Additionally, the work with innovation is unpredictable. Due to this, it is important to decrease these factors and to create opportunities for success for the innovation. In the ULL this means to have structured and well- considered processes to support the experimentation process with the innovation. This is one of the main objectives of an ULL. When setting up and running an ULL it is also important to understand the innovation(s) and to have a viable and sustainable ULL. In ULL settings, it is very important to have an innovation to experiment with and which contributes to some societal challenge. In this context, an innovation should create some value for its stakeholders and it should be developed by active stakeholder participation and by using multiple-methods.

- Provide an example of an activity, or several activities, that you’d like to showcase in engaging with citizens / quadruple helix stakeholders The key element of ‘engaging citizens’ as explained by the ULL framework Within an ULL, engaging citizens in the innovation process is of crucial importance. Citizens with different roles must be engaged when it comes to designing, co-creating, testing and evaluating innovation. Citizens might be visitors in the area where the innovations are developed. They could either be actively or passively involved in the innovation process. As previously mentioned, citizens with passive role can be considered as affectees who are affected by the innovation or solution. Other factors to successfully engage citizens in an ULL are to understand how to communicate with them, how to engage them and how to keep them engaged throughout the whole development and innovation process. The drivers to engage citizens are also different depending to the roles and degree of engagement in the innovation process. In an ULL, the role of citizens can be different, such as: experimenters, innovators, lead participants, co-creators, and finally citizens as co-testers and evaluators. Accordingly, in order to set up and run an ULL, multiple questions should be considered when it comes to engaging citizens in the development and innovation process of the solutions developed.

- What about the stakeholders, roles & organisations outside of your Living Lab? Who are you connected to, who is crucial in your operations? The key element of ‘governance’ as explained by the ULL framework The ULL has the aim to contribute to increased public value, which can take the form of economic, social and ecological value, both in public and private contexts. In these real-life implementation of innovations in urban contexts, local governments and other stakeholders who aims to gain insights into new ways of handling societal challenges. Currently, cities need to reflect on their governance strategies to find new ways of handling the growing number of complex societal challenges. Governance includes a set of actors from business to civil society and puts emphasis on social processes rather than on the state. Developing the governance and management model for an ULL requires some activities to be performed and decisions to be made in order to form the best model for the ULL.

- How does your Living Lab sustain itself, where is the money / other resources coming from? >> You can also provide some insight to the future, how will your activities continue beyond UNaLab, what kind of business model are you creating for this? The key element of ‘financing model’ as explained by the ULL framework Financing model can be considered as one of the key components of Urban Living Labs. Despite the fact that some Living Lab studies have considered financing model as a part of the governance and management component, but within the urban context, financing the ULL and its activities is crucial to make it happen and thus it is key to its sustainability. Considering an Urban Living Labs as either a long-term program, an environment or as a place, it is of vital importance to establish a long-term commitment that in turn needs its financing model and well as a maintenance plan. Accordingly, financing model can influence different activities to engage citizens and other stakeholders and building relationships with them that are parts of the ULL business model.
