We are incredibly happy that the Grupa Robocza Foundation, alongside many other outstanding institutions, is part of the consortium that received the official notification of a grant award under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions – Staff Exchanges programme.
When we held brainstorming workshop last summer to sketch a design framework for this proposal, everything was still in the realm of dreams and hopes. Now I’d like to express my special, huge thanks to Michał Krzykawski, Anna Cieplak, and all the institutions listed below - for the hard conceptual and organisational work.
Here you can have a glimpse into project goals:
“The multidisciplinary synthesis the project team intends to develop aims to provide better understanding of the nature of the limitations imposed by digital technologies, from cognitive and psychosocial constraints to environmental ones, as well as to develop recommendations for shaping technological maturity. This is why the practical, experimental layer of the project is equally important.
As a Grupa Robocza Foundation, we’ll be responsible for supporting the creation of digital and physical artifacts that will help to give the research work an accessible & human friendly shapes. We’ll also take a part in the organization of workshops, development of toolkits & hopefully do some research.
