Summary

This data set was produced to determine the functional requirements of the CultureLabs platform, an interactive system aimed at planning, managing, and implementing participatory projects. The data was gathered across Europe from June to November 2018 and consists of 5 surveys (for a total of 90 respondents) and 24 interviews: two surveys to assess the CultureLabs Consortium's perspectives on co-design before and after a co-creation workshop organised in the early stages of the project three surveys to gather the expectations of a variety of stakeholders (such as cultural professionals, academics in the field of cultural/digital heritage and community engagement, public foundations, research institutes, civil society organisations, local authorities, etc.) on technology and, more specifically, the CultureLabs platform for facilitating the participation of communities at risk of exclusion (particularly migrants and refugees) in cultural and heritage-related activities. 24 interviews with the same type of research participants mentioned above. The findings resulted in a peer-reviewed publication exploring the role interactive digital technologies could play in fostering a wider deployment of social innovation-compatible and cultural heritage-related participatory projects.
