The Uppsala UnContain Collaboratory builds on experiences from similar meeting places around Uppsala and the world. It intends to be a creative space for meetings, learning, research and different community-based initiatives, as well as a cultural hub, makers space and workshop for more hands-on activities. Housed in upcycled containers designed by professionals, students and community actors, it hopes to create a space that transcends conventional spaces and formats. These flexible, eco-conscious spaces promote interdisciplinary collaboration, offering room for meaningful innovation and important dialogues on pressing global challenges.
