Executive Summary

The European Council invited Future Worlds Center to participate in the Faro Action Plan 2016-2017. The Faro Convention Labs are organised with the participation of interested member States and communities to further explore the Faro Convention principles and their effective implementation. The Labs include a series of events for a period of 2-3 days based on the availability of the host community, and involve stakeholders at national, local and community levels. The labs intend to expand a group of participants from each country so they can work together on their return to promote and implement the Faro Convention.
