G100 Cross-Wing & Cross-Country Event, Parallel with European Green Party Congress, Dublin, Ireland, 6-7 Dec 2024 & 28 Jan 2025.
Advancing Inclusive Innovation and Policy Collaboration for a Sustainable Future.
G100 Global Chair Dr. Lizbeth Goodman (CARE Economy, Disability Inclusiveness & Social Innovation Wing) and Bodil Valero (G100 Global President 2025, Global Chair Security & Defence Wing) organized a two-day event in Dublin in parallel with the European Greens Congress in December 2024. This event was conducted in collaboration with SMARTlab at University College Dublin, the Wellcome Trust Reclaim Project, the European Commission, and other partners under the theme:
FUTURE GREEN – INCLUSIVE DESIGN THINKING FOR INNOVATION IN THE BIOECONOMY & CLIMATE
The timing of the event coincided with the Irish general elections, which posed challenges in securing meetings with government representatives at the originally planned scale. Nevertheless, G100 was provided with a demo booth at the Dublin Convention Centre in the Green Party Congress Exhibition area on December 6. At this booth, we showcased examples of Virtual Reality experiences, educational comics, and organic olfactory scents for Climate Action & the Bioeconomy, including novel VR and Olfactory exhibits created for the Biobeo Project and the VOICE Project, co-funded by the European Commission.
