Students as change agents in grand societal challenges

A primary goal of the project is to design course activities and educate students so that they gain experiential competencies in interdisciplinary collaboration while contributing to and taking ownership of solutions to the common Nordic demographic challenge. Additionally, the continuation of the network collaboration and its expansion to more educational institutions and municipalities is also an independent sub-goal of the project. Through the expanded network, the aim is to explore a generic collaboration model that equips educational institutions and municipalities to jointly solve "grand societal challenges" beyond the demographic challenge that the project primarily focuses on.

A systematic knowledge collection and research effort, which both supports the project itself and enables future educational initiatives, will be an important output of the project along with the common Nordic course activities.
