Mr. Lifelong Kindergarden has joined our Advisory Board!
If anyone knows how to foster creativity and learning, especially in informal learning environments, it is Professor Mitchel Resnick at the MIT Media Lab, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, in Boston. His insight into the relationship between play and learning is unparalleled.
We also warmly recommend his book, Lifelong Kindergarten: Cultivating Creativity through Projects, Passion, Peers, and Play, which provides an exceptional framework for nurturing creativity through playful, project-based learning.
We are very honored to announce the appointment of Professor Katherine Richardson, University of Copenhagen (Globe Institute, Section for Macroecology, Evolution and Climate) to our Advisory Board.
Professor Richardson is a highly recognised and distinguished expert, particularly within the field of planetary health, and brings exceptional expertise and academic leadership. In addition, she is strongly committed to working with young citizens to help shape the solutions of the future.
Co-Creating Planetary Health
We aim to advance global understanding of planetary health, deliver concrete and innovative solutions to advance planetary health, and establish co-creation of planetary health as a global norm - spanning cultures, generations, and diverse social contexts.
In co-creation with young citizens and researchers, we foster the development of the next generation's capacities to shape their own futures, enabling them to act as democratic, innovative, and responsible global citizens.
Co-Creating Planetary Health is a research-driven initiative designed to develop, and promote concrete initiatives that implement both the individual and overall global understanding of the interdependencies between human health, societal well-being, and the ecological systems that sustain life.
We believe that fragmented approaches to health, climate, and democratic participation are no longer adequate for addressing today's converging planetary crises. In response, we seek to develop and empirically validate new co-creation methods that integrate and bridge scientific expertise with the active participation of citizens - particularly young citizens aged 12–20 - policymakers, and practitioners across cultures and generations.
