Citizen Science - R&D - DIY - DIWO - Fabricating resilience with +200 FabLabs over France and +3000 in Europe

Founded in 2015, RFFLabs is a national association that brings together FabLabs, Fab Spaces, and Fab Communities. Our network brings together those who promote learning by doing, the right to make mistakes, open documentation, openness to all audiences, and the democratization of technical knowledge.

Our network brings together FabLabs, Fab Spaces, and Fab Communities (active or planned), workers, facilitators, and users, as well as all those who support these initiatives.

Our members are dedicated to science, technology and society, a space where to work, learn and teach in a collaborative environment. We are interested in cross-cultural programmes in collaboration with other local associations and we offer a portfolio of events and activities that:
- promotes the spirit and mindset shared by scientists and makers: analyse, research, create, modify, problems solve
- encourage inclusion in our community: from children to scientists. We will contribute to share scientific and technological knowledge in an innovative way, by supporting citizen science projects, a worldwide movement to democratise science.
- facilitate science learning by offering hands & minds-on programmes with a special attention to children and disadvantaged communities.
- support the open hardware and software movement to share, take ownership of, and contribute to science and technology knowledge and culture.
