活动简介

In this presentation, we will explore together what pleasures and perils are involved in creating transdisciplinary (co)curricular projects for undergraduates, post-graduates, faculty and community members. Using Shanghai Jiao Tong's SDGs Summer Camp 2023, Critical Zones, the More-than-Human-City, Surrealism, and Earth Stories: Hong Kong as examples, we will lay out concepts, mappings, dispositions, structures, and chance occurrences that enable such projects to become pivotal points of encounter and pathways of discovery in teaching, learning, and research.
