Title
REWORLDING and LISTENING. Building and expanding a
network of excellence on Participatory Design with and for
socio-environmental challenges. (Education)
Abstract
This DIOS Incentive Fund project aims to build and expand a network of
excellence on Participatory Design (PD) with and for
socio-environmental challenges. The project is an extension to two
ongoing EU-funded projects (REWORLDING and LISTEN). This top-up
funding (in addition to funding from the research projects and
partners) from DIOS will allow us to give these projects a broader
international outreach (a.o. through initiatives within the EURECA-PRO
network, through crossovers sought with the VLIR-IUC project in
Tanzania, etc) and to increase local involvement (UHasselt, partner
schools, local and regional actors) in the international consortia of
the REWORLDING and LISTEN projects. The DIOS project involves several
activities, of which the main event involves a four-day symposium and
network event that will start on 8.10.24, marking the official
kick-off of the REWORLDING and LISTEN projects.
Period of project
01 June 2024 - 31 March 2025
