Adrien Labaeye

Adrien is an action researcher working from Berlin on commoning at the intersection of the urban and digital spaces. His research looks at the role of collaborative mapping in a transition towards more sustainable and more commons-based practices. To conduct that research, he received a scholarship from the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) through the Stiftung der Deutschen Wirtschaft.

He co-founded in 2014 the transition>>lab to operate as an exchange platform between practice and research located within the slow co-working space Thinkfarm Berlin.

As an activist, Adrien is involved in TransforMap, a collective that is bringing together mappers who want to make the collaborative and ecological alternatives more visible through connected mapping. Aside his work as networker, he facilitates workshops using onland mapping to identify community assets, urban commons.

He likes cooking, building things with wood, gardening, dancing, climbing, sauna, board games, flying kites…

Things I share: Ideas, research, mapping skills, working space, flat, board games.
