    • #7 Hรถrpunkt โ€“ Sustainable Teaching: Change and Learning Culture at ZHdK

      How can learning and teaching at a university be designed when it sees itself as a "learning institution"? In this episode, we explore how the Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK) integrates sustainable development with an inclusive and future-oriented learning culture.

      Bernadett Settele, project lead for teaching development in the Learning & Teaching dossier and lecturer in the Master of Art Education program, along with Karin Zindel, co-head of the Sustainability dossier office, lecturer, and co-coordinator of the Minor "Alternative Futures," discuss the challenges and opportunities of making learning and teaching processes more sustainable.

      We explore how lecturers can empower students to use their skills and creativity for a sustainable future. The episode also highlights how institutional change and sustainability intersect in arts and design education.

    • #4 Hรถrpunkt - Eating Plants and Reducing CO2

      The results are in! Last November, the Farm To Table project served not only seasonal and regional but above all plant-based alternatives in the Mensa Molki at the Toni-Areal. How did this new menu plan resonate with the guests, and what were the effects of this change? In this follow-up episode, Madeleine Tinnirello (Project Manager Business Development, ZFV-Unternehmungen), Francesco Bortoluzzi (Co-Leader Farm To Table and Head of Sustainability Programs ZHAW), and Michael Krohn (Co-Leader Farm To Table and Co-Leader re-source I Sustainability in the Arts) discuss valuable insights from the four-week research project and provide insight into the complex world of university culinary arts.

    • Possible Futures

      "Possible Futures" is a podcast about the search for a sustainable artistic practice and a possible future in light of global climate change. In the first three episodes, we talk with artists, activists, and scientists about their work and its ecological impact. With our podcast, we aim to establish an honest and self-critical approach to the topics of sustainability. For the production, we exclusively used recycled materials and powered our mobile recording studio with solar energy.

    • Kunstlicht โ€” There are no sustainable materials

      Franziska Mรผller-Reissmann, head of the Material Archive and ZHdK lecturer, is a guest on the Kunstlicht podcast and deconstructs the concept of sustainability. Whether the arts are a model or a driver is a point of contention between the co-hosts Jรถrg Scheller and Eva Pauline Bossow. Look forward to a lively discussion with sustainable food for thought.
