Lab of Lived Experience builds community-governed systems that transforms excluded expertise into collective intelligence, policy change and new ventures.

The people who are left out of economic, health and social systems must be seen, heard and served.

Our purpose is to put biosystems protection, community governance, economic and social justice at the heart of tech, data, AI and innovation.

Community-governed means the people who generate the data decide how it is used, who benefits from it and what gets built with it.

Community-governed data + design

We have set out our initial data, design and ethics principles that are non-negotiable and offer an alternative model for responsible community design.

We welcome your feedback and will iterate as we grow. Email : hello@laboflivedexperience.com


Community-governed

Every model must build community wealth, not extract from the people who created it.

Universal

Everyone needs to protect their biological health…not just those labelled “sick and disabled.”

Integrative

Every system needs the expertise of the people it was never designed to see, hear or serve. This knowledge should be the starting point.

Justice-first

Every venture must build a clear pathway to economic justice.
