About us
The Low-tech Lab
The Low-tech Lab is a collaborative research and documentation project aiming to share and promote low technologies. The programme's vocation is to spread local and efficient low-tech solutions widely in order to provide a global answer to the Sustainable Development Goals defined by the United Nations.
This programme is open to any person or structure willing to contribute to low-tech innovation or benefit from its discoveries.
L'intelligence collective au service de l'innovation utile
A collaborative approach
The Low-tech Lab works in a collaborative way in order to encourage the exchange of skills, know-how and experience. The approach aims to decompartementalise innovation actors while promoting the ingenuity developed by populations.
Subsidiarity logics
Innovation must respond to concrete problems. The Low-tech Lab encourages the creation of local communities for the solutions developed to be as close as possible to the context and needs.
Open-source sharing
Because shared intelligence must be available to all, the Low-tech Lab shares the solutions of its community via open-source documentation. Open-source makes solutions available to the greatest number while encouraging incremental innovation.
The Low-tech Lab's missions
Gather
The Low-tech Lab combines the knowledge and tools necessary to the spreading of low-technologies and their way of thinking (eg: collaborative platform, sourcing, documentation, etc.)
To inspire the birth and replication of low-tech initiatives, the Low-tech Lab launches broadcasting and promotion operations (Explorer, media campaign, documentaries, etc.)
Accompany
The Low-tech Lab accompanies those who wish to implement low-tech solutions or communities everywhere in the world (eg: student organisations, development support, local branches, etc.)
How?
A collaborative platform
To make an inventory, document and inspire across borders
A community
To work in a collaborative way and be as close to the field as possible.
