Description
This track’s aim is to explore new research strategies and innovative learning approaches that reimagine the relationship between global and local efforts to alleviate poverty in light of new frameworks for conceptualizing sustainability, such as thriving and regeneration. This track encourages conceptual or empirical research papers, abstracts, extended abstracts, along with works in progress and/or proposals for research designs that challenge established frameworks about poverty alleviation and which have implications for emerging sustainability frameworks, such as thriving and regeneration. Also appropriate for this track are pedagogical papers and case studies that discuss transformative learning methods, such as new uses of multi-/cross-disciplinary faculty teams, revolutionary curricular/program/course change strategies, or breakthrough, purpose-driven engagements with stakeholders as responsible management eco-system learning partners, that result in changes in student learning about poverty alleviation through connections to prosperity, thriving, regeneration and/or responsible leadership. This track is designed for maximum interaction, discussion and mutual learning.
