Planet-centred development

Planet-centred development combines technical expertise with socio-cultural knowledge, insights, and rigorous ethical considerations. There are four key planet-centred development principles: (1) Interdisciplinary and Intergenerational Co-creation, (2) People-centred development, (3) University-Business Collaboration, (4) Environmental Ambition and Action. While each of the four key principles has a stand-alone capacity and has been applied in different contexts, the Active8-Planet approach reaches beyond the state-of-the-art by integrating these four principles into a collaborative learning process, which will be implemented and tested in two Active8-Planet Learning Cycles and specific 7+1 Team Projects.
