The project aims to help fulfilling the needs of Higher Education in fields related to the built environment and urban sustainability, that often lack an interdisciplinary approach, real-world experiences and contacts with real urban contexts and actors beyond classroom activities. To reach these objectives, the project foresees the following activities:
- the definition of a common methodology to guide project implementation, that will be shared within the partnership during a dedicated Teachers training workshop;
- a series of 3 local workshops, which are planned to be held in different target cities (Seville, Siena, Rome). Each workshop shall involve HEI students from the hosting partner university, experts from partner organisation and local stakeholders in the drafting of city decarbonisation roadmaps for target neighbourhoods/districts;
- the fine-tuning and integration of the project methodology according to the workshops results;
- the creation of a modular online course on urban decarbonisation collecting and organizing the OERs and the educational materials produced during the project;
- the realization of an open web-based platform where the online course and the other materials produced during the project will be freely accessible to students and professors for further exploitation;
- a 2-weeks’ Intensive Course in Malta where 3 students per partner HEI and 2 teachers/trainers per partner organization will put into practice the final methodology and OERs and draft a sustainable development agenda for a target area in the city of Valletta;
- a final conference to present the project results, draw conclusions, provide guidelines and recommendations for the transferability of the project methodology and outputs.
