ABRA (Artificial Biology, Robotics and Art) is a project aimed to address innovation and renewal of education by developing transdisciplinary higher education methods that bridge the arts and sciences for enhanced sustainability, specialising in the fields of artificial biology, robotics, and art.The project explicitly promotes transdisciplinary knowledge and capacity building in higher education in order to tackle the skills gaps in addressing environmental problems and climate change, and promoting excellence in teaching and skills development for students and educators.ABRA's partners strongly believe that the multilayered environmental challenges we are facing can be solved increasingly successfully by employing transdisciplinary approaches, equipping higher education with tools and methods. The starting point for ABRA is the recognition of the need to develop a transdisciplinary curriculum and training that keeps pace with scientific research and emerging technologies (artificial biology, robotics, artificial intelligence, material sciences, etc.). The most pressing problems facing human societies will require creative and innovative solutions from experts working jointly across the fields of science, technology, art, design and culture.ABRA is a 3 year project where the partners will research and co-create student learning and teacher training programmes with a strong focus on sustainability. The project offers an exciting opportunity for students and teachers of the consortium partners. The students and the teachers will be invited to participate and to co-create the ABRA programmes in workshops hosted at the partnering universities. The project will complete in 2023 with a public exhibition of the collaborative works.
