"When we stand up, they have to negotiate with us" - South-North North-South proposals from local to global sustainable changes
Sustainability-oriented

The course proposes to reflect on participation and contributions for sustainability transformation from the perspective of knowledge generation. We will focus on sustainability from the point through lectures and workshop style methodology; for an understanding of political participation of social movements. We will emphasize in social learning and the adoption of a transdisciplinary approach to the interface between science, policy and practice. The inspiration will be local proposals to global changes, mainly examples of South-North North, and their pragmatic responsible towards sustainability.

There are 2 threads under which sessions will be organized in the seminar:
1. Interface of Science, Policy and Practice, resonance with social movements from North and South.
2. Understanding meta topics- transformative, transgressive and transdisciplinary learning.

It is expected that at the end of the seminar, we have:

1) Develop broader understanding of the concept of sustainable development

This seminar will integrate North-South-South-North knowledge and requires an explicit motivation to intercultural dialogues.

Important note! The elective courses are bundled into 7 modules. Please note, that you can only select each module once. However, you can take a second course from a module as "voluntary additional credits" in a following semester.
