So many interesting suggestions! Here's a few more:

Collab School of Inclusive Design (CSID)
or
Co-lab School of Inclusive Design
or
Lifelong School of Inclusive Learning

Or a spin off of Cathy's suggestion:
3L School of Inclusive Design
(3L = Lifelong Learning Lab)

I do enjoy a fun sounding acronym (SeeYeaL8R :) that one gave me a
chuckle)

I guess part of the question will be - to whom do you want the title to
appeal? Will funders read the title and move on? Or are they likely to
glance over title and skip to the longer mission statement? Will those
you
want to attract as learners/educators be the ones we want to grab using a
well formed title?

So many interesting ideas!

I do like the terms that have been thrown in - Park (that sounds like
fun!), Network, etc. I also like the point of using a domain to think
about
title.
Another word to throw in - Hub

With apologies, further to Peter’s contribution: Colaboratory School of

R’s
(Readin’, Riting, Re-affirmin’, Regulatin’, Ratifyin’, Realizin’,

That makes for “SeeYeaL8r”.

I leave it to someone else to figure out the add-on acronym ALLIGATOR.

Hi Cybele

Great summary. One thing that should not be forgotten is that Jutta
is
not
talking about a high school here. But rather a program of higher
education
leading to a certification of higher knowledge. That knowledge will
be
built around the idea of an entry to practicing the ideals of
inclusive
design in professional or at least remunerated manner. For example.
before
the Dalla Lana Faculty of Public health become a faculty it was
called
a
School of Public Health. That designation allowed it to function
semi-independently of the Faculty of Medicine and advance the idea of
"creating condition for health" through a variety of innovative
degree
granting programs.

The way higher education is supported in Canada (and globally) is
highly
regimented and require officially approved curricula with clearly
stated
outcome competencies and differentiation from (less so in the US
where
Trump University had brief run). A school also allows a such a
program
to
be sponsored and supported by multiple existing institutions of
higher
education. A good example is the Northern Ontario School of Medicine
(NOSM)
that is jointly governed and paid for by Laurentian and Lakehead.

Ultimately the money for higher education comes mostly from the
public
purse so a standard accounting path has to be created to allow unique
missions to be pursued. At the same time a School structure can
provide a
well understood career path for faculty members and administrative
staff.
This would be true even if collaborating institution assigned or
recruited
faculty and staff to participate in the mission of the School.

There are also well understood pathways for advancement pathways and
extramural grant administration. A higher education School could also
enter
into agreements with Colleges to prepare students with prior learning
and
lived experience to successfully navigate the programs offered by the
University level School.

Here is my suggestion for a name
*Colaboratory School of Inclusive Higher Education Innovation and
Advancement (CSIHEIA)* (pronounced SeeYea)

The curriculum could be developed around the higher education skills
to
innovate and advance the higher education sector. The Colaboratory
would
emphasize the the curriculum will always be evolving and
experimental.
For
that to experimental nature to be realized careful attention will
need
to
applied to specifying data formats for measuring success.

Re the words suggested so far, I like:

Collaboration or participatory — to indicate modality
Park — interesting word.  Issue with lab is people can feel like
guinea
pigs.  Issue with sandbox is it sounds small.  Issue with institute
is
that
it sounds institutional.  Academy sounds formal.  School can sound
like
division of bigger place or place for youth.
Doesn’t mean they aren’t good words.  Like paint , it can depend how
they
are combined.
I don’t much like life-long learning in title but more in a mandate.
It
suggests for seniors or continuing education, in a title.

But learning on its own is good.

So, experiment:
Collaborative learning park
Participatory learning park
Collaborative learning centre
Centre for collaborative design
Centre for collaborative education
Centre for co-design
Centre for inclusive co-design
Centre for participatory action

What about “3L lab”, as Life Long Learning Lab has three “L”.

Greetings to all,
Although I know the strength of the word laboratory, if I confess
that
I
think it is a place where only people are "very educated."
Possibly
this
is
wrong, however, my point is that the name of the place must
summon
and
also
motivate. I propose the word park because it means playing,
opening,
sharing and also learning from the other.

*Long-life inclusive learning park*

We will learn by playing ...

Sincerely,

I need help finding a name.

As I’ve discussed with many of you, we are launching a lab
school
for
inclusive life-long learning. It will be project based and
provide
an
opportunity to explore and learn inclusive design in context. It
will
be
structured as a global learning community and governed as a
platform
co-op,
with members joining as both learners and educators. The members
will
be
“radically diverse.” We have founding members from around the
globe.

There are many groups interested in participating and sponsoring
the
initiative, each from different perspectives:
- universities and colleges see it as a way to experiment with
alternative
forms of education without risk to current institutions
- the inclusive design community sees it as a means to create an
inclusively designed educational experience unconstrained by
current
policies and structures (e.g., course length and timing,
teaching
assignments, grading and assessment, enrolment, etc.)
- industry sees it as a more grounded and flexible way to learn
about
inclusive design
- foundations and public institutions see it as a way to tackle
complex
problems and model more inclusive approaches to education
- different learners, including learners who have faced barriers
to
education, see it as a way to optimize their unique learning
potential
and
goals.

We are also devising ways to tackle financial inclusion through
our
membership structure, whereby a corporate membership also
finances
a
scholarship, so we can be more inclusive.

Several degree granting institutions are interested in granting
degrees
for requisite aggregate credits.

We are working to launch a pilot toward the end of this calendar
year
with
a one week intensive in inclusive design.
The host entity for now is the Inclusive Design Institute with
its
8
postsecondary institution partnership.
https://inclusivedesign.ca

We have used the descriptive label “Lab School for Inclusive
Life-long
Learning,” in initially socializing the plans. We chose Lab
School
to
denote the experimental or exploratory nature of the school
(similar
to
the
Child Studies Institute for K-12), but Lab denotes a sterile,
separate
space, and this will be anything but that. The name is also too
long.

I’m appealing to your collective creativity and brilliance.  Can
you
think
of a good name for this venture that somehow eludes labelling?

thanks
Jutta
