The #FutureLabEarth looks ahead! Creative ideas, advanced methods, and thoughtful approaches aim to overcome climate paralysis, with students taking the lead. They gain deep knowledge about global environmental changes, forming the foundation for designing, testing, and communicating future solutions.
In a two-semester project seminar, students from various disciplines engage with the causes of global environmental changes. They develop and analyze strategies for mitigating and adapting to future climatic changes, supported by expert input. Existing solutions are critically analyzed, tested in field trials, and evaluated. Local stakeholders provide opportunities to study energy infrastructures and mobility concepts through on-site visits. New solution concepts are presented, discussed, and assessed in interim events, with selected ideas receiving financial support for implementation and evaluation.
The #FutureLabEarth is unique! This pilot project entrusts students with developing solution concepts, teaching them to take responsibility for their projects. It showcases innovative university teaching approaches, offering valuable insights into shaping a sustainable future for our planet.
