Overview
Transformative Education for Advancing Competencies in Planetary Health (TEACH) is a cooperation project between Turku University of Applied Sciences (Turku UAS, Faculty of Health and Well-being) and Universitas Indonesia (UI, Faculty of Public Health). TEACH project activities include the development of common study modules for a 4 ECTS master’s level course on planetary health and related implementation of virtual teaching and curriculum collaboration. In addition, reciprocal short-term student and faculty member mobility periods between Turku UAS and UI will be organized. Faculty members (teachers and staff) participating in the project will have the main responsibility in carrying out these activities. Students will be actively involved in the project by participating in the mobility periods and the joint development of study modules. To foster the development of critical thinking skills and other competencies essential in planetary health and its applications such as ethical awareness, and community empowerment, transformative education approach will be utilized during the project and in the modules produced.
