Nachhaltige Lehre

Uni-Graz-Kooperation „Sustainicum“ als UN-Dekadenprojekt ausgezeichnet

Interdisziplinäre Lehre zur Nachhaltigkeit unter einem Hut, drei Universitäten unter einer Marke: SUSTAINICUM nennt sich die Kooperation von Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz, der Universität für Bodenkultur Wien sowie der TU Graz zur Nachhaltigkeit in der Hochschullehre. Und die Zusammenarbeit läuft buchstäblich ausgezeichnet: Die Österreichische UNESCO-Kommission hat die Initiative als offizielles Dekadenprojekt bis 2014 gewürdigt, freut sich O.Univ.-Prof. Dr. Friedrich Zimmermann, Projektleiter an der Uni Graz.

Bei SUSTAINICUM werden Lehrende sowohl inhaltlich als auch bei Anwendung innovativer Lehrformen unterstützt, um ein systemisches und ganzheitliches Denken zu fördern.
