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 Strasbourg from October 1st to 3rd
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.

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.

This edition of the research meeting hour "Tell me, ITAS" is part of the KIT Science Week Programme and builds on current climate research and underscores the need for a transformation toward a climate-friendly society. The concept of the handprint is presented as a central element. Its goal is to permanently anchor climate protection structurally through targeted engagement, making sustainable living easier for everyone. The handprint invites you to take an active role in the transformation. ITAS researcher Markus Szaguhn will answer all your questions about the "handprint" and climate research.
WHEN? 15 October 2025 from 12 a.m. to 2 p.m.
WHERE? MobiLab at Friedrichsplatz, Karlsruhe
Entry free
Starting with a keynote speech at 12 noon, you can join the discussion or leave at any time.
“Tell me, ITAS” is a series of events organized by ITAS in which researchers move their workplace to Karl9 - Wissenschaftslokal für Technik und Gesellschaft or to the TRIANGEL Transfer | Kultur | Raum once a week and answer your questions about their research topics.
