Nordic Rebels: Goose bumpifying learning for societal agency
When
Where
This is one of the core tenets of Nordic Rebels: creating learning experiences that help our students see the critical role they play in creating a brighter future for all of us. Learning is not only about earning a diploma or a degree, but first and foremost it is about transformation - growing as a human being and helping our peers achieve the same.
In May 2019, a Finnish-Danish blended minor program titled 'Nordic Rebels' received a Danish Design Award in the Better Learning category. It emphasises the famed Nordic values: democracy, student-centred learning, cuisine and design-driven methods and processes. Essentially, a strong proposition on what learning could look like.
