ReGEN4All
LOES is involved in a European partnership project on research in eco-communities. It is about how to better connect researchers and practitioners.
REGENERATIVE COMMUNITIES FOR ALL
ReGEN4All aims to assist researchers, educators and practitioners in eco-communities as well as in academia. The idea is to make eco-communities-related research and knowledge accessible to all, so that practitioners can better use the available knowledge in their teaching and advocacy work and so that researchers can become more strongly connected to the eco-communities field. In addition, the research must be made more accessible to policymakers when it comes to sustainable lifestyles and the life lived in eco-communities.
As part of the project, a webplatform has been developed, where you can find the following, among other things:
- A e-community library with a collection of European research on eco-communities.
- A ’Code of Conduct’ with recommendations on how to conduct research in eco-communities or allow oneself to be researched.
- A collection of colloquiums, held through the project, where researchers and practitioners share knowledge.
- A growing ’community of practice’ development where people can meet across borders.
The idea is to do ’match-making’ easier.
If you as an eco-community have a need or ideas for further research – or as a researcher need to do fieldwork in one or more eco-communities. That part is being worked on further
Research is a field we would like to be closer to in LØS. Now we have a place where we can forward it to, for example, when students ask about what knowledge exists in the area. It is great with the European projects that make this kind of thing possible. We look forward to a continuation. The project is funded by Erasmus+.

It is always welcome to have more volunteers involved in the projects, so that the project manager is not responsible for all the tasks.
