CHALLENGE: SOCIAL CREATIVITY

OCT - APR
Price: 25 €.
Registration until October 12
33 hours in total: (classroom course + online assessment)
Valid for 1 ECTS
With Javier Pozas

UPDATE, THE PROJECT STEP BY STEP:

From October 17 to 21, participants received a course INSIDE THE BOX, given by Javier Pozas at the Museum. Once they had all the information, they worked in small teams to assimilate the methodology by applying it to concrete examples. 

February 6, the Mexico team set out the specific problem and provided all the local information needed to carry it out.

The challenge will be to come up with ideas to improve road safety, since in Sinaloa there are more cars than people and the rate of child traffic accidents is very high.

Time to get to work. Teams get to work on the specific challenge to propose their solutions. Solutions must be feasible and sustainable. 

They will have to submit their projects and proposals around Easter, since on April 17 the jury will decide which of the proposals will be taken to Sinaloa...

THE PROJECT

A collaboration of Campus Creativo and Tantaka

Join the challenge of creatively solving a specific social problem that a team from Culiacán (Sinaloa, Mexico) will present to us. The solution must also bring an IMMEDIATE BENEFIT to the local community. 

A program to learn creative tools to solve real problems that takes place at the Museum, online and in Sinaloa.

Is it for you? If you are concerned about social issues and want to experiment with other people on how creativity can help us to solve them... This is your challenge.

We will use methodologies that will help us to creatively and systematically design solutions to real problems, while combining them with other management tools taught in executive and university programs.

In this project you will learn to identify problems and opportunities, and acquire the necessary tools to design creative and effective solutions to real problems. 

How will we do it? With the help of a team, a mentor and other people who, like you, are looking to make a positive impact on society. The program runs from October through April and will take the winning team to implement their idea in Mexico. 

DEVELOPMENT

We will work in teams of no more than 5 people, coming from different grade levels, during the academic year. We will also creatively solve calendar and scheduling challenges so that everything fits into your academic life.

On the other side of the ocean, the Mexico team will work on formulating the concrete problem/challenge.

Throughout the program, the teams will have weekly support through online sessions with Professor Javier Pozas and the Mexican team.

You will have to work on creating an effective and FEASIBLE solution. All proposals will be collected before April 17, when a jury will decide the winner.

With the selection underway... The team that designed it will go to Mexico! There, in Sinaloa, they will work for two months to implement their idea with the help of the local team. 

If you have any questions, please contact us at alumnosmuseo@unav.es.
