Making cutting-edge sustainability research visible – that is the goal of the Eucor MobiLab Roadshow. In the cities of the five member universities of the trinational Eucor alliance (Universities of Freiburg, Basel, Strasbourg, Haute-Alsace and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) as well as in other cities in the Upper Rhine region, citizens have the opportunity to experience "hands-on science" and exchange ideas with researchers.   The traveling venue for the diverse program is the MobiLab – the mobile participation laboratory of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.   The MobiLab will be visiting Karlsruhe from October 14th to 19th   After its premiere in 2023, the "Eucor MobiLab Roadshow" is taking place for the second time with an expanded program. The German-French-Swiss Upper Rhine Conference provides financial support for the roadshow.   The Eucor team at KIT, the KIT Center for Humans and Technology (MuT) as well as the Karlsruhe Transformation Center for Sustainability and Cultural Change (KAT) at the Institute for Technology Assessment and Systems Analysis (ITAS) organize the roadshow.

This event takes place as part of the KIT Science Week.   On 30.09.2025 (14 - 14.30) there will be a short online meeting with all registered students - the actual event is on 14.10.2025 from 10-17.00. ECTS credits will only be credited in the winter semester 2025/26! You will receive more information on this at the online appointment on 30.09.25   FUTURE WALK A history of tomorrow The cooperating global society on planet Earth has turned the corner - global warming is limited to 1.65°C! The implementation of Agenda2030 has worked, poverty, hunger, social inequalities and injustices are a thing of the past. Biodiversity is regenerating in diverse urban ecosystems and new species are exploring liveable cities, clean air, fresh water and nourishing soils. Children are playing in the streets, geographical boundaries are giving way to cultural circles, diversity is colorful and neighborhood and solidarity are consumed. The anthropogenic impact and the ecological footprint of humans is grandchild-friendly and “Earth Overshot Day” is celebrated peacefully worldwide on December 31. Learning future skills, vision and transformation competence has created the future and empowered a new generation of people to work towards shaping a sustainable co-, environment and afterworld. Would you like to know more about this world? Become a part of it, be creative and help shape it yourself? Then come to the Zukunftsraum (Quartier Zukunft, Rintheimer Straße 46, 76131 Karlsruhe) on October 14, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. for a thought journey. From there, we will move through the city and end our journey at the Triangel on Kronenplatz. The interactive work phase, discussion and reflection will then take place there. Workload for ECTS: 1 ECTS: Active participation + reflection report

This event takes place as part of the KIT Science Week 2025.   A somewhat different walk through Karlsruhe invites you to experience the city with all your senses, to pause and explore inner and outer spaces of tranquility. How do I move through the city, how do I perceive this space? How can I create spaces of calm both inside and out? Drawing on Karlsruhe's founding myth, we want to explore aspects of mindfulness and deceleration together for a livable city of the future. Our own experiences and the shared exchange about them are intended to open up personal creative scope and provide suggestions for urban design. The walk is in German language. Please register in advance.

This event takes place as part of the KIT Science Week 2025.   The workshop provides current insights into climate research and underscores the need for a transformation toward a climate-friendly society. The concept of the handprint will be introduced as a central element. Its goal is to permanently embed climate protection structurally through targeted engagement, making sustainable living easier for everyone. With the help of an action poster, participants will work in groups to develop their own approaches to engagement: an invitation to take an active role in advancing climate protection in Karlsruhe and beyond. Please register in advance.
