The event will have Spanish-English interpretation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The self-paced course was developed in partnership with the University of California Long Beach and the University of Calgary and is based on experiences in transdisciplinary knowledge production to address global environmental change in Latin America and the Caribbean.\u00a0The course consists of a case study book with examples of transdisciplinary projects carried out in Peru, Brazil, Bolivia, Panama, Jamaica, Mexico, Uruguay, and Colombia. The case studies are interwoven with four modules that present key concepts and tools for transdisciplinary practice: 1) Fundamental concepts of transdisciplinary research; 2) Lessons from Latin America and the Caribbean; 3) Capacity building for successful collaborations in transdisciplinary research; 4) Design and management of projects for equitable and ethical TD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the event, the course structure, development process, pedagogical approach, and possible uses, especially in Global South contexts, will be presented. The event will feature presentations by researchers who participated in the development of the course, as well as special guests who will share their experiences in transdisciplinary research and reflect on the potential of this tool for training in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The webinar will feature:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Laila Sandroni,\u00a0Transdisciplinary Program Leader, Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gabriela Alonso Y\u00e1\u00f1ez,\u00a0University of Calgary<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lily House-Peters,\u00a0University of California, Long Beach<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cristina Adams,\u00a0University of S\u00e3o Paulo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Basirat Oyalowo,\u00a0Oxford Brookes University \/ ITD Alliance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Agenda:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Welcome and introduction to the IAI \u2013\u00a0Omar L\u00f3pez Alfano (5 min)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Presentation on the IAI&#8217;s TD Academy \u2013\u00a0Laila Sandroni (10 min)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Course development process and structure \u2013\u00a0Gabriela Alonso Y\u00e1\u00f1ez and Lily House-Peters (15 min)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pedagogical approach and use of modules \u2013\u00a0Cristina Adams and Basirat Oyalowo (10 min each)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the speakers will answer three key questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What would you like to highlight from the IAI course based on your experience as a transdisciplinary researcher?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To what extent does this resource respond to the needs of the Global South?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What possible uses do you envision in your professional practice and networks?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Question and answer session\u00a0(10 min)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@roadahead_2223?utm_content=creditCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=unsplash\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Road Ahead<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/a-blue-and-yellow-globe-surrounded-by-leaves-and-flowers--7NODx5klho?utm_content=creditCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=unsplash\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Unsplash<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research extends a warm invitation to the official launch of the online, free, certificate-based course entitled:\u00a0\u201cAdvances in Transdisciplinary Research&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":105936,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"tags":[312,424],"region":[],"tag":[566],"class_list":["post-105935","events","type-events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-environment","tag-transdisciplinary-science","tag-event-by-isc-members"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.0 -
