ENHANCE | EMPOWERING HIGHER EDUCATION THROUGH CITIZEN SCIENCE AND INNOVATIVE FUTURE-ORIENTED LEARNING STRATEGIES
GOALS OF THE PROJECT:
- Supporting collaboration between European universities.
- Consequences of climate change and environmental issues result in a sense of hopelessness and disconnect from politicians that can drive change
- Our project builds a tool to support citizens' participation to create a vision for alternative futures, providing hope which empowers
Background & Description:
This project brings together universities from across Europe to tackle the growing sense of hopelessness around climate change and environmental issues. By involving citizens directly in research and democratic discussions, the project aims to inspire more hopeful and actionable visions for the future. It focuses on building the skills of researchers to engage meaningfully with communities, creating a network to share knowledge and best practices, and developing tools that support authentic citizen participation
