New and unique sustainable development learning and project space, Carbon Garage, is located at the Metropolia Myyrmäki campus. The goal for Carbon Garage is to create collaboration possibilities, enhance sustainability education and concretely advance climate change mitigation and sustainable development solutions through collaborative innovation projects.
Knowledge and solutions for climate change mitigation exist but the actions are few and far between. At Carbon Garage, we develop concrete climate actions together!
Carbon Garage is a learning and project space where future sustainability experts are created. The open learning environment and new educational methods offer unique possibilities to network, get practical work life experiences as well as develop sustainability expertise.
The practical collaborative innovation projects organized at Carbon Garage support companies in their green transition and bring sustainability solutions into action, as well as improve sustainability expertise and advance the utilization of new innovations. Carbon Garage offers companies and research institutes a place for networking and finding future sustainability experts and potential employees. There is power in unity and collaboration when creating new solutions for better tomorrow.
The platform is kickstarted by EAKR-funded Carbon Busters project.
