Transdisciplinary learning to foster sustainable development: Instituionalizing co-engaged South-North collaboration
Research output: Journal contributions › Journal articles › Research › peer-review
Authors
Ways towards sustainable development will require mutual learning processes and processes of change across disciplines and stakeholders and between the Global South and North. The new Institute for Sustainable Development and Learning aims to meet these requirements ‐ through transdisciplinary learning as evidence-generating and evidence-supported learning processes on the individual, organizational and societal levels, thus fostering fundamental system transformations. It invites scholars and other societal actors from the Global South and North to collaborate and partner.
