Education
Learning
differently at all ages
The Education hub creates and transforms educational programmes and practices, at the individual and collective levels, to enable people to learn in alternative ways, both inside and outside of academic institutions.
Based on interdisciplinarity and research, its programmes are designed to have both individual and collective impacts, at local and global levels. In so doing, they contribute to building a learning society for a more sustainable world.
The Education hub encourages people of all ages to embark on a learning journey throughout their whole lives (with training designed for young people, undergraduates and graduates, as well as executives).

Higher Education
Within the Education hub, the Higher Education department develops university courses, from the bachelor’s degree to the doctoral school.
The degrees are interdisciplinary (with both life sciences and social sciences) and rooted in the world of research. The students are involved in a concrete way, through the integration of new learning methods: peer-to-peer, project-based, research-based, tool prototyping and curriculum co-construction.
Interdisciplinarity and the exploration of new ways of learning give students the necessary tools to act in a systemic way and to respond to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the common thread of their training.

Power to learn, power to act: our Executive Programmes
Within the Education hub, the Higher Education department develops university courses, from the bachelor’s degree to the doctoral school.

The students are involved in a concrete way, through the integration of new learning methods: peer-to-peer, project-based, research-based, tool prototyping and curriculum co-construction.
Interdisciplinarity and the exploration of new ways of learning give students the necessary tools to act in a systemic way and to respond to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the common thread of their training.
In addition, our ‘Transformation of Organisations’ Hub helps individuals, organisations and ecosystems to develop their capacity for action and adaptation in the face of current and future transitions.
