This course brings students from NHH, UNWE and WU together in a fully online, intercultural and interdisciplinary course to explore the intersection of crisis communication and sustainability communication through intercultural teamwork. After a joint welcome session, experts from each of the participating ENGAGE.EU institutions will introduce their topics in (interactive) lectures and then coach the groups as they work through a case and develop and communicate solutions for real-world problems. At the end of the course, teachers and students come together again to present their projects and discuss their different approaches. Students thus learn about the theoretical foundations of sustainability communication, crisis communication and multicultural virtual teamwork before applying this theory in a group project simulating a sustainability crisis scenario. As well as gaining theoretical and practical knowledge of these multidisciplinary content areas, students will also learn how to engage with virtual communication, project management, and delivering effective presentations.
