Internal event: Evolving the Lions’ Gate Garden

The Lions’ Gate is an on-campus garden laboratory, venue, outdoor classroom, bio-diverse habitat, and play-pit for doing sustainable things. It applies Permaculture Design Principles and Ethics to realise a green university, where community, health & well-being, creativity and quality learning and research are core to all our thinking and doing.

This meeting aims to explore future uses of the garden as a living lab for IoT, pervasive applications and interactive spaces. We are looking forward to a thoroughly interdisciplinary session where we can explore the potential for future collaboration in areas such as soil science, biodiversity, data communications, Internet of Things and human-garden interaction (HGI).

Activity in the garden is related to SDG3: Good Health and Wellbeing, SDG11: Sustainable Cities and Communities and SDG15: Life on Land
