Complex Problems and Transdisciplinarity
This module covers complex problems and transdisciplinarity. A number of complex issues have begun to stand out as major concerns in the 21st century. Complex problems such as the environment, climate change, immigration, hunger, water crises, world population, disease, and energy are some of the most serious issues affecting the world today. These issues that transcend disciplinary boundaries cannot be addressed by anyone discipline alone: Transdisciplinary approaches can offer solutions to these challenges by providing new skills and tools aimed at creativity, innovation, and collaborating across knowledge fields.
