Join the annual conference of the Design Impact and Transition (DIT) platform, to learn and discuss how we can transform universities.
At last year’s DIT Day conference, participants and speakers imagined how the university of the future could look like. This year we’re looking at how to make transformations happen, to reach this dream university. Drawing on the experiences of real-life transformative organizations like the Design Impact and Transition (DIT) platform, we will explore how to organize transformative initiatives and transformative research.
Prepare for a day full of interactive and unconventional sessions. You will get to explore a gallery showcasing transformative academic initiatives at Erasmus University Rotterdam and beyond, participate in workshop sessions and networking activities, and listen to artistic expression of a transformative university.A more detailed program is coming soon.
