At a time when the challenges facing our society are increasingly complex and require an interdisciplinary approach, learning to learn is, more than ever, a democratic, economic and scientific issue. In order to increase its impact in the service of the common good through the construction of a learning society, CRI is pursuing its development.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

In response to crises (social, environmental, economic) that were already in the making, researchers Fran\u00e7ois Taddei and Ariel Lindner launched the CRI (Centre de Recherches Interdisciplinaires) in 2006, convinced that a new and unique approach to teaching through research was both necessary and possible.<\/p>\n

Since then, the CRI has doubled in size every eighteen months, growing from a handful of people to an internationally renowned institute and a global community with several hundred partners on every continent, over 100 teacher-researchers, more than 40 researchers in residence, over 2,500 hosted students, 35,000 pupils, 120,000 online learners, including 40,000 school teachers. Today, CRI is a prestigious, award-winning 7,000 m\u00b2 research and learning campus, offering a range of programs for all ages and backgrounds (from kindergarten to PhD, from lifelong learning to participatory science and inclusion, etc.).<\/p>\n

In order to increase its impact and respond to the ever-growing number of requests from public and private players, the CRI has redesigned itself and become the Learning Planet Institute. Its aim: to co-create a learning society to meet the challenges of our time and, thanks to knowledge sharing and learning through research, to become a gas pedal of creativity in the adaptation of individuals and organizations to a changing world.<\/p>\n

The Learning Planet Institute represents a new chapter in the development of the CRI, in the continuity of its initial project, but now focused on the learning society. But it's also a new name that reflects not only an ambitious commitment to social impact, but also the necessarily multicultural dimension of an institute whose long experience of international cooperation is a major asset in achieving the goals it has set itself.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven if we change our name, we'll remain focused on our fundamentals, the ability to co-design with learners and teachers research-based learning environments that transcend disciplinary barriers, where they can express their creativity and learn to meet challenges. <\/em>Fran\u00e7ois Taddei.<\/p>\n

To achieve this goal, the Learning Planet Institute is both and complementary (each dimension feeding the others within the same learning ecosystem):<\/p>\n
