summary This paper introduces and discusses the first outcome of a recently created digital fabrication laboratory at Favela da Maré, a slum in the North zone of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The lab called FavLab is a partnership between the Jo?o e Maria Aleixo Institute, located inside Favela da Maré, and the Department of Architecture and Urbanism of PUC-Rio University. More specifically, it aims to present the lab's first activity: a workshop devoted to create and fabricate meaningful objects to the context of favela exploiting digital design and fabrication methods. Architecture undergraduates and local young residents not enrolled in the educational system participated in the studio. This paper aims to discuss in details the experience of teaching for this particular group of students, as well as the impacts of the collaborative design between university and favela students to create interactive objects in a Brazilian community. The paper aims to reinforce and remark an innovative and inclusive approach to digital design and fabrication. This paper also attempts to discuss further developments and next steps towards more profound and broader collaboration between academia and favelas' representatives.

summary This article presents and discusses the result of a digital fabrication laboratory in a favela in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The laboratory is an experimental studio dedicated to teaching design and sharing technological knowledge between architecture students and young slum dwellers. The laboratory aims to explore collaborative design solutions for the public space in informal contexts, which meets local demands and presents an innovative and inclusive approach to digital design and fabrication. The paper offers a comprehensive theoretical background and the detailed methodology used in the studio.
