The Power of Play for Landscapes of Change

Activity: Talk or presentationTalk or presentation at a conference

Description

Today’s new generations, particularly young people, will face consistent landscape changes in their lifetime. Can we create consciousness in young generations of how climate change will modify landscapes and cities? Can we involve children and university students in co-designing the landscape when considering climate change? Can we develop new educational methods and co-designed techniques for primary and tertiary education?
This transdisciplinary seminar will focus on the Power of Play in its broader meaning, grammar, education theories, design strategies, and co-design practices. It will also discuss how co-designing and co-creating with younger generations might shape the changing landscapes of climate transition.
This event is part of the Comenius Fellowship course for didactical and pedagogical innovation—an invitation to act collectively to save our planet and to develop a positive attitude and emotional knowledge in contact with nature to tackle the climate transition.
