International Research Event

Join us at our different research events: conferences, seminars, workshops, panel discussions and open debates Disrupting Thinking (DiT) is organised by ELaRA-TESST - The European Laboratory For Pedagogical Action - Research And Student-Centred Learning for Technological Education, Smart Development, Sustainability and Transdisciplinarity at the European University of Technology (EUt+). Disrupting Thinking endeavours to offer a forum that encourages innovative and disruptive studies that help us better understand our economy, our socio-economic and environmental systems, their dynamics and the importance of education and pedagogy. We seek to challenge the status quo and bring new insights into existing economic, financial and educational theories to shed light on how our global economy interacts with our social, cultural, and political systems. We host exciting research events,with our 4th event is focused on the theme Education to Navigate Conflict.

We are issuing a Call for Critical Reflections, Research and Education Contributions. We are looking for innovative ideas to present and discuss your education or research contribution, so we are open to your suggestions regarding your themes, ideas and communication channels. But, to enable us to understand your proposal, we ask you to provide an abstract of your idea. Please briefly outline your research contribution, your research structure, and how it will contribute to developing new ways of thinking in your proposed area of study while highlighting its economic connection.

Our research event aims to differentiate from traditional conferences as we seek to develop and nurture a network of researchers who think out of the box and bring new insights that challenge traditional ways of thinking. We will examine issues that help us better understand our evolving reality through an interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary, transdisciplinary educational and research approach. As such, this event is open to educational ideas and research studies that seek to enrich our views and understanding of our global economic, financial, political, social, environmental and education systems and their dimensions. Disrupting Thinking (DiT) opens the door to all disciplines that enable us to question the way that our global economy works and flows. Our main goal is to provoke stimulating discussion and debate that question and shed light on economic elements and their broader interfaces that are not traditionally considered and frequently neglected.
