Take a look at Levenseindeboom.
How can you inspire residents of Utrecht to lead more sustainable lives? This is the challenge taken up by staff, lecturers and students of HKU. In the coming years, they’ll be using virtual reality, games and ‘design thinking’ to inform citizens and encourage them to live in a more sustainable way. HKU is carrying out the project under the auspices of the European Commission.
What do you do in a crisis situation? How do you take decisions? And can you stay calm? Mayors can practice these skills in the virtual municipality of Trouwveen. They learn to take decisions quickly, but also to discuss things with the police, aldermen and communications experts.
If you’re a student and want to use your creativity in solving social problems, you can contact Innovation Studio for advice, coaching or an internship, both during your studies and afterwards. This gives students the opportunity to use their creativity in a new way and to discover new professional fields.
