Calls for transformations towards a sustainable future are growing louder. Universities are drivers of transformation research but have only recently been also understood as places where this needs to be implemented. Participants of this X Tutorial will be working in small groups on the question of what a sustainable Adlershof campus would look like and how action research projects can contribute to the university's ecological transition.
After a series of keynote lectures about sustainability transformations by internal and external speakers, students will co-create solutions using design thinking. As the final product participants will produce a project report for the University and posters, which they will present. Thus, this X-Tutorial contributes to the research agenda of universities as places of sustainability transformations and advances the implementation of Humboldt University's climate neutrality strategy.
The seminar will be in English as will most of the readings. However, students are welcome to speak German in class as well as submit their assignments in German. The final exam is a group poster presentation.
The seminar will take place in the Humboldt Labor at the Humboldt Forum. If you want to join please email us at geigerca@hu-berlin.de and verdugod@hu-berlin.de and meet us in front of the Humboldt Forum at the exit of the U-Bahn station Museumsinsel on 24.04.2023 at 12:15. |
