At Learning UPRUN, we believe in the power of community-led urban transformation. This platform thus provides a civic learning hub for students and lecturers alike to actively engage in shaping resilient urban neighbourhoods. Building on the insights gained from our project “UPRUN: Planning for Social Resilience in Urban Neighbourhoods” (resilient-neighborhoods.eu), we provide a diverse range of teaching formats and modules tailored for planning resilient urban environments. Our approach seamlessly integrates urban insight, design thinking, shared action, and grassroots planning to foster effective learning experiences. Our goal is to cultivate innovative and activating learning experiences that empower both educators and students.

An essential feature of LearningUPRUN is our comprehensive online database, which provides access to practical examples and case studies. This valuable resource is complemented by a variety of flexible teaching modules that can be tailored to create engaging lectures, whether delivered in person, hybrid, or online. We embrace diverse teaching methods such as traditional lectures, flipped classroom approaches, role plays, group discussions, and more. Our platform offers a wide range of materials, including insightful inputs, informative texts, and engaging podcasts.

By participating in LearningUPRUN, students will have the opportunity to reflect on social participation, social resilience, and sustainable transformations within urban communities from multiple perspectives. Join us on this exciting journey towards creating resilient and community-driven neighbourhoods!
