Περιγραφή Μαθήματος

This interdisciplinary postgraduate course is jointly offered by instructors from 4 CIVIS universities (Aix-Marseille Université, France, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece, as coordinating institution, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain, and Sapienza Università di Roma, Italy) working together to offer to 50 Master’s and PhD students coming from multiple disciplines a multi-faceted coverage of the societal challenges involved in making socially vulnerable groups of refugees, migrants and children become visible and have a voice on the sustainability of cities.

Course activities encompass 10 physical 4-hour teaching sessions offered in Athens, Greece during 1 week in May 2024, 5 virtual 4-hour teaching sessions offered only during May-June 2024, and self-study and individual/small group project assignments to be delivered during June 2024, totalling a workload of 6 ECTS.

Main topics addressed

• Design strategies and implementation measures for the design of sustainable reception centers
• Ecological models for the bio-psycho-social well-being of migrants and refugees
• Extended Reality environments and participating in the city
• Intercultural pragmatics and communicative competence for inclusive bilingual and multilingual education
• Giving voice through more horizontal governance to imagine and design more sustainable cities
• Open government, public participation, playfulness, RRI and co-creation as frameworks for giving voice

Learning outcomes

Students taking the course will develop:

• Subject matter knowledge on the topics taught
• Reflexivity, an essential soft skill for understanding the complexity of targets (children, migrants, refugees) and thinking about sustainable cities in time and space

Moreover, through project assignments on course topics combined with cross-cutting issues, such as gender and intersectionality as research dimensions, cultural exchanges and artistic expression as frameworks of getting a voice and participating, and others, students will also develop transversal competences.

The assignment delivery process itself, encompassing study and research parts, working individually/in groups, reporting, presentation and peer-to-peer evaluation of fellow students’ projects, helps students develop scientific work skills, as well as soft skills on handling group dynamics and undertaking an evaluator mindset.
