About SPLOT

SPLOT Institute offers interdisciplinary training programmes, workshops and prototyping sessions to address complex societal challenges that require an integrated approach. We collaborate with municipalities, companies, organisations, communities and young people, tailoring our activities to policy frameworks, regional strategies and relevant data – to help solve problems and generate solutions. SPLOT has addressed issues such as climate education, post-war reconstruction of Ukrainian cities, regenerative agriculture, air pollution, astrotourism, psychophysical wellbeing and AI. In addition to training and mentoring, we provide expert insights across various domains from around the world.

What do they do in the Distributed Design context?

As part of the Distributed Design Platform, we have launched SPLOT Open – an initiative that focuses on building an inclusive, open and interdisciplinary community where we strive to democratize access to knowledge and creation. As part of the scheme, we facilitate a space for meetings, interactions and exchange of ideas that have openness in their DNA. To make sure that we are open indeed, we welcome a wide array of initiatives. Our definition of openness includes components ranging from open licensing, co-creation and circulation of knowledge sharing or open data to community governance, circularity and decentralized decision-making.
