Check back frequently to discover all offered lectures! \n07 October 2026 | Session A\n\n\n					 09:00 – 10:00 (CEST) | Sustainable use of local farm animal breeds for healthy food\n						\nwith István Egerszegi\, Associate professor at Hungarian University of Agriculture and Life Sciences \nTraditional local farm animal breeds play a vital role in preserving irreplaceable genetic reserves\, supporting national cultural heritage\, and enriching agricultural diversity. Environmentally\, their extensive\, pasture-based grazing efficiently utilises marginal\, lower-yield but diverse grasslands\, preserving the natural rural landscape while demonstrating strong resilience to extreme weather. For health\, products from these breeds offer significant nutritional benefits\, including lean\, high-protein meats and healthy fats suited to modern diets. Maintaining these sustainable breeding practices secures genetic reserves for quality food production\, boosts rural development\, and enhances regional tourism in the future.  \nTime zones: 08:00 – 09:00 WEST\, 10:00–11:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 10:00 – 11:00  (CEST) | Embracing the Uncomfortable: Transforming Dissonant Pasts into Tourism Experiences\n						\nwith Ilze Grīnfelde\, Lecturer at Vidzeme University of Applied Sciences \nThe topic explores how uncomfortable\, contested and difficult pasts can be reinterpreted as tourism resources via several case examples. Focusing on dissonant heritage\, it examines the tensions between memory\, identity\, authenticity and tourism development\, and considers how places associated with conflict\, trauma or ideological divisions can be transformed into meaningful visitor experiences. Rather than seeking to make difficult heritage comfortable\, we will discuss how tourism can engage with its complexity\, contradictions and emotional potential.  \nTime zones: 09:00 – 10:00 WEST\, 11:00–12:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 11:00 – 12:00 (CEST) | Sustainable development – From theory to practice\n						\nwith Francesca Allievi\, Senior Researcher at Jamk University of Applied Sciences and Eetu Lehtonen\, Senior Lecturer at Jamk University of Applied Sciences \nThe course will help students recognize\, understand\, and apply sustainable development perspectives in practice. It will broaden their understanding of what sustainable development means in different sectors and how they can utilize it in work and life. It also provides regional perspectives to these issues\, while aiming at giving students the tools to look at sustainable development with critical and systems thinking skills. The course also includes reflection activities which can help students internalize the concepts presented and leave the course with tools to ask the right questions.    This course can be completed independently through assignments and offers students a wide range of additional materials through which they can deepen their knowledge on specific themes of sustainable development. \nTime zones: 10:00 – 11:00 WEST\, 12:00–13:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 12:00 – 13:00 (CEST) | Social Work 2050: Designing Healthy\, Inclusive and Sustainable Regional Futures\n						\nwith Lutz Siemer\, lecturer at Saxion University of Applied Sciences \nHow must social work and related professions in the social and health care sectors evolve to ensure that European regions remain healthy\, inclusive\, and livable in 2050? This interactive presentation explores how climate change\, demographic shifts\, inequality\, displacement\, and digitalization could impact health\, well-being\, and social inclusion in various contexts. Participants will meet Lea\, a fictional social worker in the year 2050\, and\, using contrasting future scenarios\, explore the decisions facing these professions today. Through polls\, a regional decision-making exercise\, and a brief backcasting exercise\, they will compare “green social work\,” technology-supported practice\, and community-oriented support systems. The presentation does not attempt to predict the future. Instead\, it invites students and academic staff to explore how education\, organizations\, politics\, and local communities can begin building a resilient and inclusive future right now. At the end\, participants will receive a practical framework for linking global developments with regional vulnerabilities\, resources\, and opportunities for action. \nTime zones: 11:00–12:00 WEST\, 13:00 -14:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 13:00 – 14:00 (CEST) | Why Do We Keep Failing to Make Society More Equal?\n						\nwith András Barczi\, Assistant Lecturer at Hungarian University of Agriculture and Life Sciences \nGood intentions are not enough to reduce social inequality. Projects promoting gender equality\, education\, social inclusion or environmental responsibility often target visible issues without considering the conditions that sustain them. Can gender equality meaningfully advance where people face war\, extreme poverty or lack of education? Can environmental responsibility become a priority where access to food\, water or reliable energy remains insecure?  This lecture explores why well-intentioned interventions may fail when we overlook the different levels and chains of dependency within complex social systems. With a particular focus on gender inequality\, it examines how emotional and impulse-driven approaches can lead us to address visible symptoms before underlying conditions. Rather than questioning the importance of equality or sustainability\, the lecture asks a more practical question: if we genuinely want lasting social change\, where should intervention actually begin? \nTime zones: 12:00–13:00 WEST\, 14:00 -15:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 14:00 – 15:00 (CEST) | Gays\, Geeks and Gamechangers: Diversity as the key groundbreaking regional innovations\n						\nwith Marco Strijks-Boedhoe\, Saxion University of Applied Sciences and Alexandros Xafis\, Science Outreach Expert at USTP – University of Applied Sciences St. Pölten \nEuropean universities invest heavily in talent development and technological innovation. However\, the third pillar of Richard Florida’s framework—tolerance—often receives less structural attention. In this interactive lecture\, we explore why belonging\, inclusion and authentic leadership are essential drivers of creativity\, innovation and regional development. Together\, we introduce the vision for a European Learning Community for Identity\, Belonging &amp; Inclusive Leadership\, where students\, educators and partners from across the E³UDRES² alliance can learn\, collaborate and contribute to a more inclusive Europe. Participants will discover how they can actively help shape this growing international community. \nTime zones: 13:00–14:00 WEST\, 15:00 -16:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 15:00 – 16:00 (CEST) | Towards an innovative teaching method for evidence based practice using an online escape game\n						\nwith Evi Lemmens\, Researcher and Lecturer at UCLL UAS \nEvidence-based practice (EBP) is essential for delivering high-quality and safe healthcare. It combines the best available research evidence\, clinical expertise\, and patient preferences to guide care decisions\, considering the patient’s context. Although healthcare students and professionals recognize the value of EBP\, many struggle to find\, critically appraise\, and apply scientific evidence in clinical practice. As a result\, EBP remains underused despite its proven benefits for quality of care\, patient safety\, and health outcomes.  Research shows that EBP is most effectively taught through interactive\, practice-based\, and integrated learning approaches. In this lecture\, we will present you with background information and will also dive into an online escape game. With this game\, players can translate theoretical knowledge into practical actions while solving clinical challenges in a fun way\, and most importantly\, feel confident and competent to use EBP in daily practice and act as entrepreneurs to stimulate others in doing the same.  \nTime zones: 14:00–15:00 WEST\, 16:00 -17:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 16:00 – 17:00 (CEST) | Beyond “Are There Any Questions?”: Understanding the Barriers Behind Patient Non-Adherence\n						\nwith Jasmine Buntinx\, Lector at UCLL UAS \nThis session focuses on the question of why patients do not always follow health advice and prescribed interventions. It examines the various health determinants that can influence a patient’s health behaviour\, including socio-economic\, psychological\, social and environmental factors\, as well as health literacy.  We will examine how knowledge\, attitude\, social influence\, motivation and skills contribute to behavioural change\, and why sufficient knowledge does not necessarily lead to the desired health behaviour. In addition\, the influence of stress and emotional strain on information processing and the ability to act will be explored.  Finally\, the role of communication within nursing care is critically discussed. Among other things\, consideration is given to the question of whether a general closing question such as ‘Are there any questions?’ is actually sufficient to ascertain whether a patient has understood the information provided and is able to apply it. \nTime zones: 15:00–16:00 WEST\, 17:00 -18:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\nwith István Egerszegi\, Associate professor at Hungarian University of Agriculture and Life Sciences \nTraditional local farm animal breeds play a vital role in preserving irreplaceable genetic reserves\, supporting national cultural heritage\, and enriching agricultural diversity.

What AI Can(not) Deliver in Citizen-Centered Healthcare\n						\nwith Jakob Doppler\, Academic Director Digital Healthcare | Center Lead Digital Health and Social Care at USTP – University of Applied Sciences St. Pölten \nFrom personalized chatbots in social communication and support systems in gait analysis to smarter household robotics: the approaches to AI in healthcare and nursing are diverse. This presentation provides an overview of the current state of applied research and highlights which future visions are still utopian and which are already close to market readiness. This transformation requires not only interdisciplinary collaboration between health\, social services\, and technology\, but also responsible governance and citizen participation.   \nThis talk features best practice examples from both\, design and implementation of the EUDRES Joint European Master Citizen-Centered Digital Health and Social Care: https://www.ustp.at/en/study-programmes/media-digital-technologies/citizen-centered-digital-health-and-social-care and European R&amp;D in the Center for Digital Health and Social Innovation (CDHSI) https://cdhsi.ustp.at/en \nTime zones: 09:00 – 10:00 WEST\, 11:00–12:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 12:00 – 13:00 (CEST) | Critical thinking: the skill that makes the difference in the age of AI\n						\nwith Júlia Justino\, Professor and Researcher at Polytechnic University of Setúbal\, Paula Miranda\, Professor at Polytechnic University of Setúbal\, and Silviano Rafael\, Researcher at Polytechnic University of Setúbal \nThis lecture begins by introducing the concept of critical thinking and explaining its growing importance in today’s AI-driven world. Then\, some relevant practical applications of critical thinking for students will be shown. Through an interactive activity\, participants will reflect on their own thinking processes and discuss the insights generated during the exercise. The lecture concludes by pointing out the key characteristics and skills of a critical thinker\, encouraging participants to move beyond the passive acceptance of information and develop the ability to analyse\, interpret\, and apply knowledge thoughtfully and responsibly. \nTime zones: 11:00–12:00 WEST\, 13:00 -14:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 13:00 – 14:00 (CEST) | Time Management as a Soft Skill: Building Sustainable Productivity and Wellbeing\n						\nwith Helena Martins\, Professor of Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management at Polytechnic University of Setúbal \nIn a context marked by information overload\, constant interruptions and growing mental health challenges\, time management is no longer just a technical productivity tool. It is a key people skill for sustainable work\, learning and wellbeing. This lecture introduces the concept of stress-free productivity\, exploring how individuals can manage attention\, energy\, priorities and expectations in a healthier and more realistic way. Drawing on research and practice from organizational behavior\, human resource management and soft skills development\, the session will present simple strategies to reduce overwhelm\, improve focus and create more resilient work habits. Participants will be invited to reflect on their own productivity patterns and identify practical changes they can apply immediately in academic\, professional and personal contexts. \nTime zones: 12:00–13:00 WEST\, 14:00 -15:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 14:00 – 15:00 (CEST) | Ethics in health care: autonomy and dignity in end of life care\n						\nwith Nancy Cannaerts\, lecturer at UCLL UAS \nEnd-of-life decision-making is shaped by underlying conceptions of the human person\, influencing how values such as autonomy and dignity are understood in healthcare. Ethical debates are often framed as a conflict between individualistic and relational perspectives of personhood. This lecture proposes a more nuanced approach\, viewing these perspectives as complementary rather than opposing.  The individualistic perspective emphasizes personal responsibility and autonomous choice\, forming the basis of patient rights legislation and end-of-life practice. However\, it may provide limited guidance in situations of impaired decision-making capacity\, or preferences for shared decision-making.  In contrast\, the relational perspective views persons as embedded in relationships and mutual dependence. It understands autonomy as something supported through dialogue and trust. The lecture also explores differing conceptions of dignity\, contrasting dignity linked to cognitive capacity with dignity as an inherent human value.  Drawing on clinical cases\, the lecture demonstrates how both perspectives inform ethical deliberation and professional judgment in end-of-life care. \nTime zones: 13:00–14:00 WEST\, 15:00 -16:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 15:00 – 16:00 (CEST) | Family-Based Physical Activity as a Strategy for Health\, Wellbeing and Social Inclusion in European Regions\n						\nwith Susana Sofia Martins Garradas\, Invited Adjunct Professor and Researcher at Polytechnic University of Setúbal \nThis lecture explores how family-based physical activity can promote health\, wellbeing and social inclusion across European regions.  Drawing on Human Ecology\, health promotion and sport sciences\, it will show how movement shared within families can strengthen physical health\, mental wellbeing\, family cohesion and community connection.  The session will invite students to reflect on the links between family\, school\, community and regional wellbeing\, and to consider practical ways in which educational institutions can encourage healthier and more active lifestyles.  Through an applied and interactive approach\, participants will discuss how small\, accessible physical activity practices can become tools for prevention\, inclusion and sustainable wellbeing across the life course. \nTime zones: 14:00–15:00 WEST\, 16:00 -17:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 16:00 – 17:00 (CEST) | Urban Health in Eastern European Cities: Assessing Urban Dysfunctions and Their Impact on Population Wellbeing\n						\nIasmina Onescu\, lecturer at Politehnica University of Timisoara \nEastern European cities are experiencing profound social\, economic\, and spatial transformations that directly influence population health and well-being.

Regenerative Tourism as a Tool for Regional Development and Resilience\n						\nwith Rositsa Röntynen\, Senior Lecturer at Jamk University of Applied Sciences \nTourism is typically discussed as an industry whose success is measured through visitor numbers\, spending and growth. This lecture challenges that assumption by proposing a regenerative and ecosystem-governance perspective in which tourism is understood as a tool for regional development rather than an end in itself. Destinations are viewed as living socio-ecological ecosystems where communities\, businesses\, public organizations\, civil society\, culture and nature are interconnected and co-create value. In this context\, the purpose of tourism is not merely to generate tourism benefits but to strengthen regional resilience\, community wellbeing\, environmental renewal\, innovation capacity and cross-sector collaboration. Drawing on ecosystem governance research and regenerative tourism studies\, the lecture explores how visitors\, local communities and diverse stakeholders can jointly address locally defined needs and opportunities. The discussion highlights how tourism can support the development of other sectors\, mobilize knowledge and resources\, and contribute to thriving places where the wellbeing of communities and ecosystems becomes the primary measure of success. \nTime zones: 11:00–12:00 WEST\, 13:00 -14:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 13:00 – 14:00 (CEST) | Remembering the future: Find new perspectives on working life\n						\nwith Mervi Monthan\, Senior lecturer at Jamk University of Applied Sciences\, and Hanna Hopia\, Principal lecturer at Jamk University of Applied Sciences  \nWhat if imagining the future could teach you something new about yourself and your future working life?  Come and explore “Remembering the Future”\, an inspiring activity that invites you to imagine future working life as if it has already happened.

This lecture explores how physiotherapy can contribute to more sustainable healthcare by combining health gains with reductions in the environmental burden of care. From the perspective of SDG3\, Good Health and Well-being\, physiotherapy is positioned not merely as a clinical intervention\, but as a potential driver of sustainable transformation across healthcare pathways. Particular attention is given to prehabilitation: an increasingly important approach to optimising patients’ physical and psychological readiness before major treatment. By improving functional capacity and potentially reducing complications\, hospital length of stay and avoidable healthcare utilisation\, prehabilitation may simultaneously improve outcomes and reduce associated carbon emissions. The lecture challenges conventional notions of sustainable healthcare and invites participants to consider how physiotherapists can become active agents of both health and environmental sustainability. \nTime zones: 13:00–14:00 WEST\, 15:00 -16:00 EEST \n										\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n					\n\n\n					 15:00 – 16:00 (CEST) | DIVING INTO TOMORROW\n						\nwith Carmina Simion Simescu Martinho Nunes\, Professor at Polytechnic University of Setúbal \nIntroduction of the concept of Green Swans as transformative developments capable of generating regenerative economic\, social\, environmental\, and political outcomes.  Unlike Black Swans\, which are rare and highly disruptive events\, and Gray Swans\, which can be partly anticipated\, Green Swans create breakthroughs previously considered improbable or impossible.  Current capitalism\, centred predominantly on financial profit\, is inadequate for addressing escalating planetary and societal challenges.

We often take safe drinking water for granted. Yet water that looks perfectly clear may still contain things we cannot see and may not always be safe to drink. With climate change\, pollution\, extreme weather and growing pressure on water resources\, this is a challenge that concerns us all. In this interactive lecture\, we will explore a simple question: what makes water safe to drink? Starting with a glass of apparently clean water\, we will discover what might be hidden beyond what our eyes can see and explore some of the ways we can make water safer. But what happens when safe tap water is not available? Would you boil it? Filter it? Disinfect it? And would that always be enough? Through everyday examples\, real-world situations and small challenges\, this lecture will invite participants from any background to think differently about the water we drink. Because when it comes to water\, clear doesn’t always mean safe.

But what happens when safe tap water is not available? Would you boil it? Filter it? Disinfect it? And would that always be enough? Through everyday examples\, real-world situations and small challenges\, this lecture will invite participants from any background to think differently about the water we drink. Because when it comes to water\, clear doesn’t always mean safe. Safe water may feel guaranteed today but can we afford to keep taking it for granted? \nTime zones: 10:00 – 11:00 WEST\, 12:00–13:00 EEST \n								\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					 \nwith Thierry Tartarin\, Senior researcher at Saxion University of Applied Sciences \nWith the Quickscan CBM you gain insight into the possibilities of a circular business model for your company. You use a questionnaire to assess where you are now in sustainable and circular entrepreneurship. You then explore the possibilities for a more circular business model. To do this\, you choose a basic type of circular business model and select options for building blocks such as the organizational form and revenue model.   The Quickscan CBM is available as an interactive Excel application (click Download tool). Optionally\, a PDF version of the quick scan can be downloaded for offline use. We shall use a real case to explain how to use the Quickscan Circular Business Models tool. \nTime zones: 11:00–12:00 WEST\, 13:00 -14:00 EEST \n								\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					 \nwith Fausto Mourato\,  Associate Professor at Polytechnic University of Setúbal\, and João Morais\, Assistant Professor at Polytechnic University of Setúbal \nThis lecture offers a historical and critical overview of video games as tools for cultural\, social\, and regional transformation\, far beyond entertainment. Focusing on non-mainstream titles\, we explore how games have addressed societal themes such as health\, innovation\, economic resilience\, education\, and regional identity. From The Sumerian Game (1964) and The Oregon Trail to Darfur is Dying and Foldit\, we examine how games have become platforms for education\, scientific research\, and social engagement\, while also addressing ethical considerations.  Designed both for people who enjoy games and for those who have not yet explored them extensively\, the session highlights what game-based approaches can offer professionals\, educators\, researchers\, and regional actors in their own fields. A guided demonstration will introduce practical applications and provide a bridge to a new micro-credential in augmented-reality experience design\, to be launched shortly within the E³UDRES² Alliance and designed for participants regardless of their technical background. \nTime zones: 12:00–13:00 WEST\, 14:00 -15:00 EEST \n								\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					 \nwith Tobias Knedlik\, Professor for International Economics at Fulda University of Applied Sciences \nThis lecture presents the latest findings from the newly published Joint Economic Forecast (Gemeinschaftsdiagnose) prepared by Germany’s leading economic research institutes\, to which I contributed. It will discuss the global and European economic outlook\, developments across key sectors of the German economy\, current economic shocks and policy responses\, as well as the major challenges facing economic policy. Particular attention will be given to the growing importance of resilience and innovation in sustaining long-term growth\, and to the implications of structural transformation for regions. \nTime zones: 12:00–13:00 WEST\, 14:00 -15:00 EEST \n								\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					 \nShabnamjit Hundal\, Senior Lecturer at Jamk University of Applied Sciences \nGeopolitical risks and their profound linkages to financial instability worldwide\, particularly within the EU\, range from market disruptions to operational and security risks. The nature of geopolitical risks differs from that of traditional macroeconomic and financial risks in terms of their causes\, characteristics\, and effects.  Traditional risks are generally associated with predictable operational challenges\, whereas geopolitical risks can create entirely new operational and even existential challenges. To remain resilient and efficient\, a financial system must have robust contingency plans in place to address the full scope and complexity of geopolitical risks. \nTime zones: 14:00–15:00 WEST\, 16:00 -17:00 EEST \n								\n				\n									Register for this lecture\n					\n																																			 \nQuestions about this activity?\nSend an e-mail to the organizer to learn more. \n								\n				\n									Send e-mail

SUMMARY:The Brain-Savvy Teacher: Navigating Uncertainty and Intercultural Challenges with Confidence
DESCRIPTION:Register here\n \nRegistrations are possible via e-mail to Dr. Mirian Kanne. Please include your contact information and research department. \nJoin us for an interactive workshop for doctoral and postdoctoral researchers exploring the changing role of the instructor in contemporary higher education. Titled “The Brain-Savvy Teacher\,” this session focuses on the growing pressure placed on instructors to adapt their teaching to increasingly culturally diverse and dynamic student populations. \nParticipants will reflect on the demands of developing a culture-reflexive and student-centered teaching approach and the considerable effort this often requires. More importantly though\, the workshop addresses a vital and frequently overlooked question: What are the limits of adapting in teaching? \nDrawing on insights into how the human mind works\, we will examine where teachers can meaningfully influence learning processes—and where resistance is likely\, making further investment of effort ineffective or even counterproductive. The workshop provides space to exchange teaching experiences and challenges and to develop practical strategies that balance adaptation in teaching with self-care and realistic expectations. \nThis workshop is targeted towards scientific staff in an early career phase. \nPlease note \nPlease be aware of the course timezone provided in the course description. Converting the course times to your timezone may be necessary to ensure your availability. \n   \nQuestions about this activity?\nSend an e-mail to the organizer to learn more. \n \nSend e-mail

SUMMARY:Rainwater Harvesting in Buildings: A Circular Water Strategy
DESCRIPTION:Application deadline: 15 May 2026 \nRainwater harvesting (RWH) systems have become a cornerstone of modern sustainable water management\, offering a practical response to growing pressures on freshwater resources\, urban flooding\, and climate driven rainfall variability. By harvesting and reusing rainwater for non potable purposes (such as toilet flushing\, irrigation\, and washing machines)\, these systems reduce demand on drinking water networks and help preserve groundwater and surface water bodies. Their relevance is global: countries like Germany\, the UK\, Spain\, Japan\, Australia\, Brazil\, and the US have integrated RWH into building codes\, urban planning\, or large scale demonstration projects. \nFrom the Tokyo Dome’s 3000 m³ system to the Potsdamer Platz district in Berlin\, and from mandatory installations in parts of Australia to municipal requirements in Spain\, RWH has evolved from an ancient practice into a widely diffused\, technologically advanced solution that supports circular water management and climate resilience. \n \nDetails\nCourse Content \n1. Historical and conceptual foundations2. Drivers\, opportunities for rainwater harvesting in buildings\, environmental and economic benefits\, and key barriers.3. System components and operation4.

SUMMARY:Reinventing Water: Greywater as a Circular Resource
DESCRIPTION:Application deadline: 14 May 2026 \nGreywater is lightly polluted household wastewater (from showers\, baths\, sinks\, and laundry\, excluding toilet wastewater). With appropriate simple treatment\, greywater can be safely reused for non-potable purposes such as toilet flushing and irrigation. Replacing drinking-quality water for these everyday applications\, households and communities can reduce demand on freshwater supplies\, which is increasingly important in a climate change and water scarcity scenario. Greywater reuse thus strengthens local water resilience and offers a practical\, decentralised approach to sustainable water management. \n \nDetails\nCourse Content \nLecture Topics:1. Greywater reuse in the climate change context.2. Drivers\, opportunities\, and limitations for greywater reuse\, environmental and economic benefits\, and key social\, regulatory and technical barriers.3. Governance of greywater management: policy frameworks\, legislation\, and regulation. Greywater quality requirements and risk-based standards for different uses.4. Overview of greywater treatment technologies and performance considerations.5. Design and operation of greywater reuse systems at building and neighbourhood scales.6. Global perspectives and case studies on greywater reuse implementation across different climatic\, socio-economic\, and regulatory contexts. \nTutors \nCarla Gamelas \nStudy Programme \nDegree in Environmental and Marine Technologies \nECTS \n0  \nContact hours \n90 minutes \nFull/partial course \nSingle lecture \nEuropean Qualifications Framework (EQF) \nEQF 6 \nCourse ID \nSL_IPS_4 \nPrerequisites \nNone \nFurther information\n\n\n					 Teaching Methods\n			\n			\n						\nLecture \n\n\n\n					 Learning Outcomes\n			\n			\n						\nBy the end of this lecture\, students will be able to: 1.

SUMMARY:(German) Gemeinsam Lernen unter einem D-A-CH. Innovation in der Gesundheitsversorgung interprofessionell!
DESCRIPTION:Application deadline: 27 April 2026 \nEntwickelt als interprofessionelles Team ein innovatives Gesundheitsförderungskonzept für und mit Menschen mit Beeinträchtigungen. Diskutiert auf Basis des bio-psycho-sozialen ICF-Modells über Gesundheits- und Sozialsysteme im deutschsprachigen Raum. \n\nDetails\nCourse Content \nStudierende aus dem D-A-CH-Raum entwickeln interprofessionell ein innovatives Gesundheitskonzept für eine Person mit gesundheitlichen Beeinträchtigungen und Anliegen an eine gesundheitsfördernde Lebensweise. Sie identifizieren Akteure in der Primärversorgung und reflektieren deren Interaktion mit Patient:innen. Sie analysieren Potenziale sozialer und gesundheitlicher Innovationen im österreichischen und internationalen Gesundheits- und Sozialsystem mit Fokus auf interprofessionelle und telemedizinische Lösungen. \nKollaborative Online-Lehre dient als Zugang\, um regionale\, personen-zentrierte\, interprofessionelle Versorgung zu vermitteln und kulturelle/strukturelle Besonderheiten zu verstehen. Reale Patient:innen sind Teil des Lehrendenteams\, um ihre persönliche Zielsetzung und eine umfassende konzeptionelle bio-psycho-soziale Sicht auf Gesundheitsförderung und Krankheitssekundärprävention anhand von ICF-Komponenten zu berücksichtigen. \nDer fallbezogene Lernprozess umfasst: Eine Kick-Off-Veranstaltung zum Kennenlernen\, Vorbereitungsaufträge zu den Fällen\, den Gesundheitssystemen und Sicherstellung von ICF-Grundkenntnissen\, sowie online-Arbeit in interprofessionellen\, internationalen Kleingruppen\, um mittels des Design-Thinking-Prinzips (Diamond-Ansatz) innovative\, personenzentrierte Lösungen zu entwickeln\, auf nationale Regionen zu übertragen und kritisch zu reflektieren. Für Zusammenarbeit\, Vor- und Nachbereitung nutzen die Studierenden die Online-Plattformen Zoom und Miro. \nTutors \nAndrea Glässel\, Marietta Handgraaf\, Ursula Hemetek\, Claus Hofmann\, Anita Kidritsch und Co-Lehrende Patient:innen \nStudy Programme \nInterprofessionalism in Primary Healthcare \nECTS \n1 (check with institutional E³UDRES² coordinators to see whether ECTS can be recognized) \nContact hours \n8 \nFull/partial course \nFull course \nPrerequisites \n4. Semester eines Bachelorstudiums für Gesundheits- oder Designberufe \nFurther information\n\nTeaching Methods \n\nEin Kernelement der Lehrveranstaltung ist die Einbindung realer Patient:innen\, die als Co-Lehrende im gesamten Lehrprozess (Vorbereitung\, Durchführung und Evaluierung) mit persönlichen Erfahrungen eingebunden sind und für Fragen und Feedback zur Verfügung stehen. Das Lehrbeispiel beginnt mit einer 1\,5 bis 2-stündigen Kick-Off-Veranstaltung zum Kennenlernen und Erklärung der Konzepte und Arbeitsaufträge\, einschließlich einem ersten Austausch innerhalb der Kleingruppen. Gegebenenfalls ändert sich die Gruppenkonstellation noch leicht. \nVorbereitungsaufträge im Eigenstudium: \n\nFallbeschreibungen auf der Grundlage der ICF (Internationale Klassifikation der Funktionsfähigkeit\, Behinderung und Gesundheit) als biopsychosoziales Modell werden zur Verfügung gestellt.\nStudium der Gesundheitssysteme in Deutschland\, Österreich\, Schweiz (Literatur/Video).\nAusgewählte Kapitel des ICF-eLearning-Tools für ICF-Grundkenntnisse. Online-Zusammenarbeit in interprofessionellen\, internationalen Kleingruppen nach dem Design-Thinking-Prinzip (Diamond-Ansatz) unter Nutzung digitaler Tools (insb. Zoom\, Miro).\nIn Phase eins (Entdecken und Definieren) geben die Patient:innen tiefergehende Einblicke in ihre Fallbeschreibung. Durch die Anliegen der Patient:innen geleitet fokussieren sich die Studierenden auf bestimmte ICF-Komponenten (auf Aktivitäts- und Partizipationsebene). Sie identifizieren Schnittstellen zwischen den verschiedenen Professionen und den Anliegen der Patient:innen.\nIn Phase zwei (Entwickeln und Umsetzen) erarbeiten sie personenzentrierte Lösungen (beispielsweise für den Weg zum Supermarkt und das Einkaufen im Geschäft) und eruieren strukturelle\, regionale Anpassungen sowie die Finanzierbarkeit der Lösung. Sie reflektieren ihre Lösungen kritisch in der Kleingruppe und mit den Co-Lehrenden. Abschließend bereiten sie das Konzept für die Patient:innen und ihre Reflexion final auf.\n\n\n\nLearning Outcomes \n\n• Studierende aus dem D-A-CH-Raum entwickeln interprofessionell ein innovatives personen-zentriertes Gesundheitskonzept für eine Person mit gesundheitlichen Beeinträchtigungen und Anliegen an eine gesundheitsfördernde Lebensweise\, um ein möglichst langes unbeschwertes Leben zu Hause zu führen (L6).\n• Sie identifizieren gesundheitssoziale\, technische und strukturelle Akteure in der Primärversor-gung.
