Partners were given a tour on the premises of the \u201csfs\u201d, with insights to the history of the building, previously being the office building of a coal mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project team worked intensively on the ongoing work packages throughout the week, deepening the collaboration and further increasing the team spirit. The representative of the European Union, the Project Officer, joined one of the project team\u2019s meetings online, participating in the discussions of the establishment of the Living Labs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"562\" src=\"https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/05\/219_2025_Smartville-project-partners-visited-TU-Dortmund_1-1024x562.jpg\" alt=\"[Alt text: a group of about fifteen people standing outside a huge building, smiling.]\" class=\"wp-image-24165\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/05\/219_2025_Smartville-project-partners-visited-TU-Dortmund_1-1024x562.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/05\/219_2025_Smartville-project-partners-visited-TU-Dortmund_1-300x165.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/05\/219_2025_Smartville-project-partners-visited-TU-Dortmund_1-768x421.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/05\/219_2025_Smartville-project-partners-visited-TU-Dortmund_1-570x313.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/05\/219_2025_Smartville-project-partners-visited-TU-Dortmund_1.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image 1.

The German law (Grundgesetz) explicitly states that all people are equal before the law and prohibits discrimination based on gender, origin, race, language, or religion, providing the framework within which Equal Opportunities Officers (EOO) operate, giving them both authority and responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The responsibilities are broad and impactful consisting of guiding management on equality strategies and legal compliances, monitoring the HR processes from recruitment to promotion, developing equality plans to outline and measure gender balance and diversity, raising and fostering awareness of inclusion, supporting employees if experiencing discrimination or inequality and tracking progress on equality. &nbsp;The experts described that especially women remain underrepresented in many fields, including top management roles. The task of the EOO\u2019s is to work on closing this gap.

The CETisan empowering and dynamic hub that bridges the gap between academic research and real-world application, and is a central point of contact for students, researchers, and innovators aiming to transform ideas into impactful ventures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the RIF Institute of Logistics and Innovation was visited, and partners had the chance to experience the German forests; forest growth, harvesting, and assessing the possible damages resulting from the storms. From the forest, a flight was taken to the international Space Station, both activities through virtual reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At RIF partners got to visit the Cyber-Physical Brewing Lab and taste two different types of beer produced in the lab. The RIF has an ongoing \u201cBeverGreen\u201d research project to optimize the carbon footprint of new beverages, with a pioneering role in issues of sustainability and climate protection, by choosing the most sustainable ingredients and processes and using the circular economy systems. (RIF 2025)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An organized tour of the famous Signal Iduna Park- stadium, home of the Borussia Dortmund football team, provided a spectacular experience for the partners to have a foretaste of the atmosphere of a football match; including the possibility to see the dressing room of the famous team, as well as sit on the substitute bench.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Work on the project will continue online with the ongoing work packages. Partners will visit Namibia in November 2025, where the final event of the project\u2019s results will be organized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-background\" style=\"background-color:#b3edfb\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p>Author<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mia Ekman<\/strong> works as a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Business at LAB University of Applied Sciences.
