Erasmus University Rotterdam is all about creating a positive societal impact and building bridges between our education and the outside world. But luckily, we don’t have to reinvent the wheel by ourselves. There are many organizations and educational programs that are working on the same issues. Why not share our knowledge and experiences? Â
That’s why we organize the Impact Education Conference on Tuesday October 4. During this day colleagues and partners working within impact-driven education are invited to share their examples, experiences and good-practices during several workshop rounds and roundtable discussions. We will talk about societal impact through co-design, futures literacy, the use of Living Labs as powerful learning spaces, working together with external stakeholders, and much more.
This conference will take place at the iconic SS-Rotterdam, a former transatlantic ship. So, hop aboard, full steam ahead and get inspired!Â
