IDG Summit Viewing Party in Utrecht

On 16 October 2024 from 2-5 PM

You are cordially invited to join us

for an afternoon of learning and inspiration with fellow Transition Makers. We will come together to watch the IDG Summit, exchange ideas and explore how different goals can inspire our collective future.

Interested in
co-creating?

Are you an educational professional at a Dutch higher education institution, and would you like to add a new tool to the Toolbox?

If you have a teaching or learning activity paired with an assessment method, related to societal transitions and one of the IDGs, that you would like to add to the Transition Makers Toolbox, this session is for you!

It could be a tool that is new to you that you want to start using in your education practice, or a tool that you are already working with and would like to share in and/or further develop for the Transition Makers Toolbox.

The first co-creation session will take place on 14 November from 9 am to 1 pm. The follow-up session is on 16 January 2025 from 1 to 5 pm. Both sessions will be held on-site in Utrecht.

Please note, it is important to know the source of the tool and to have permission to share the tool in the Toolbox.

This guarantees a key characteristic of our Toolbox: the material we will share in the Toolbox is open source.

This means that the tools we end up sharing will be accessible for anyone to use, redistribute, and modify at no cost.

“While focussing on closing the gap between science and society with transdisciplinary education, we are conducting evaluative education research on students’ experiences and skills gained during transdisciplinary education.

Onboarding in Transdisciplinary Collaboration is based on the need to facilitate transdisciplinary collaboration in the Bachelor’s programme in Computational Social Sciences. It aims to foster meaningful alignment by developing a Collaborative Blueprint.”

Guido de Wilde

”With my background in Communication Science and subsequent professional training, I am very committed to supporting students in developing 21st-century skills, such as cultural intelligence, reflection and leadership.
I truly belief that nurturing intercultural awareness, promoting creative thinking, and embracing social innovation can empower communities to overcome barriers and achieve transformative change. 

With Inclusive Decision-Making, I invite you to explore the art of inclusive consensus, where every contribution is a step towards a richer, more democratic dialogue.”
