The Developing and Evaluating Skills for Creativity and Innovation (DESCI) project proposes work-based learning pathways based on the Living Lab approach, adopting participatory design methodologies and connecting schools, businesses, research, and local communities.

The school has the opportunity to create a co-working space, an innovation laboratory for the reference community, where students, guided by business tutors and the research community, develop innovative products that are socially, ecologically, and economically sustainable.

DESCI is a project funded by the Erasmus Plus Programme, Key Action K2, by the INDIRE National Agency. The project leader is CNR-IRPPS, with partners from the research and education sectors in Italy, Greece, and Spain.
