Transforming undergraduate learning: Teaching transdisciplinarity on a university-wide scale

This webinar, hosted by the ITD Alliance Oceania Regional Network, explores how universities are embedding transdisciplinary approaches into undergraduate education to address complex social and environmental challenges.

While a focus on transdisciplinary approaches for tackling complex social and environmental problems is well established in specialised postgraduate programs, universities are becoming increasingly interested in embedding transdisciplinary capabilities at the undergraduate level.

The event includes brief presentations, a moderated dialogue, and a 30-minute open discussion (‘Talanoa’) to connect with peers across Oceania.

Speakers

The University of Technology Sydney and The Australian National University are pioneers of such university-wide efforts in Australia. In this session, two key people from these institutions, Giedre Kligyte (University of Technology Sydney) and Chris Browne (The Australian National University), will share their experiences of implementing transdisciplinary learning at scale. The session will be moderated by Gabriele Bammer, President of the Global Alliance for Inter- and Transdisciplinarity.
