oikos Academy 2022

What is the role of higher education in a VUCA world? The acronym that is all over the media describes the high volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity of our world in the 21st century, rendering our challenges as a human society. Higher education institutions step up to this challenge and start preparing themselves and their students for this reality – in more or less successful ways. At oikos, we know that no one can navigate in this future alone. We need a diversity of perspectives to co-create new ways of living, leading & learning – and this includes the joint development of regenerative, innovative curricula & education structures in all fields. How can higher education foster the capacities and competencies needed for sustainable development and help us navigate through this VUCA world?

This year’s Academy will be taking place on five universities in Africa and Europe as well as online.

You are welcome to attend oikos Academy events in-person at repective universities and online events hosted by local chapters via Zoom. To get up-to-date information to reach you via email, make sure to sign up here.
