URBAN TRANSFORMATION AND PLACEMAKING: FOSTERING LEARNING FROM SOUTH ASIA AND GER­MANY (2020-2023)

Cities reflect and stimulate cultural, social, economic and political lifeworlds across time and space. Paying attention to this demographic condition, but going deeper and beyond quantitative dimensions, this subject-related partnership will jointly explore how institutions of Higher Education can respond to the ways in which cities in South Asia and Germany transform and what can be learnt from their often substantial changes. The aim is to train young generations of students in the Humanities and Social Sciences as well as Art and Design, to shape socially responsible and sustainable career paths by means of handling future-oriented questions and methodological challenges related to the ‘Urban Age’.
