New title: Science-to-Action for the Common Good
Class Description:
All Paths for Translating Science to Action for the Common Good Translating science to action has occurred in all societies, but is more complicated in technological societies when multiple aspirations (economy, environment, health, climate-risks) are at play, where people are removed from the natural system, and, where technological innovation is rapid but often not well-understood in terms of impact. As a result, solving ?grand challenges? of environmental sustainability, food security, climate-resilience and governance of emerging technologies requires integrating multiple pathways and multiple sectors for translating science to action. The multiple pathways refer to regulations, voluntary programs, cooperative approaches, entrepreneurial and market-based solutions. The various pathways require multi-sector collaboration between academia, governments, for-profit and NGO sectors, all of whom play different roles in translating science to action. Further, communities themselves hold vast local informal knowledge ? often untapped - that is essential for place-based problem-solving . Most importantly, professionals no longer work within or with only one sector throughout their career, and are now expected to have the knowledge of the multiple pathways and sectors described above. Given these needs, this course is envisioned as a first introductory course for translating science to action for the common good, offered to students, researchers and professionals who are seeking high social impact Course Objectives: This course will: - Introduce students to the available theories and frameworks that describe some of the strengths and weaknesses, and best practices in working on grand challenge challenges across communities, businesses, governments, academia and NGO sectors. - Using the example of sustainable city development, different pathways will be delineated as well as the need for using a portfolio approach incorporating multiple pathways, and multiple sectors. - Experts from the different sectors will share their experiences describing the culture as well as practice in these different sectors. - Students and faculty will participate in the course in a seminar format with reflections after each week, and a synthesis paper addressing pathways and sectors for a ?challenge? problem defined by the student. Grading: The course is a blend of a seminar plus project-based course. Grading will be based on framing relevant and creative questions (25%), engaging in dialogue with the weekly speakers and with the class-cohort (25%), and, on translating learning from the course into a real world project (chosen by the student) that will be due at the end of the course (50%).
