Several urban living labs focus on sustainable development, which is a visible and urgent issue in less valued suburbs in need of modernization and social uplift. We argue that, when applying the living labs approach in the context of sustainable development in suburbs, the primary focus should be society’s collective goals, as expressed through municipalities and users. The aim of this article is to show examples of how urban living labs can be applied in less valued suburbs in order to contribute to sustainability based on societal goals. We build on analyses from the research project SubUrbanLab, where urban living labs were set up in Alby and Peltosaari, two suburban areas in Sweden and Finland, respectively. We draw lessons regarding how to use urban living labs for sustainable development in order to create favourable conditions for ongoing engagement with the municipality and users towards long-term sustainability. %B Technology Innovation Management Review %I Talent First Network %C Ottawa %V 6 %P 27-34 %8 01/2016 %G eng %U http://timreview.ca/article/958 %N 1 %1 IVL Swedish Environment Research Institute Katarina Buhr is a Social Scientist at IVL Swedish Environment Research Institute.
