Abstract:

This project aims to develop a methodology to boost creativity and innovation skills in technical disciplines (engineering, architecture, designers, scientists...), in order to foster the creative and transformative culture required by the New European Bauhaus movement promoted by the European Commission.

Bearing this in mind, it is considered that the project can bring benefits to the following stakeholders:
-Technical professional profiles:
1) improve the intellectual capacities of the learners by reinforcing problem solving skills, divergent thinking, creativity and innovation for sustainability,
2) improve their capacity to adapt in the working and social environment,
3) boost participation and collaborative work with other people and agents,
4) foster lifelong learning. All this taking as a reference the new European Bauhaus Compass framework for the promotion of competences in innovation and creativitity.

- Companies and organisations:
1) improving the profile of the workforce with its due impact on business competitiveness,
2) creating new, more inclusive and collaborative working environments,
3) fostering cohesion and knowledge transfer between workers,
4) improving adaptability to the environment, taking advantage of opportunities arising from social, ecological and economic transition.

Participation in the conference aims to receive feedback from the scientific community regarding the developed methodology: Creative Minds for the New European Bauhaus.
