SUMMARY:U!REKA shared value creation
DESCRIPTION:Do you feel a responsibility to make students aware of sustainability and the transition to a new economic way of thinking? Do you want to guide students to become change agents in the transition to a sustainable future? The shared value creation workshop offers a powerful tool (3LC-model) to make sustainability concrete and applicable in your education. \n\nThe Triple Layered Business Model Canvas (3LC-model) \nThis 3LC model expands the well-known Business Model Canvas with two additional layers: an ecological and a social layer. The 3LC model\, based on the work of Joyce\, Paquin and Pigneur\, offers teachers the opportunity to map not only the economic\, but also the ecological and social aspects of companies. The ecological and social layers together form the sustainability layers of the model. This way\, your students will learn how companies can contribute to a more sustainable future. \n  \nWhat to expect?\n \n\nInspiration and concrete tools to integrate sustainability into your lessons.\nInsight into the use of the 3LC model\, with which you can let students work on issues surrounding the new economy\, regenerative business models and the economy of meaning.\nIntroduction to the ‘personal layer’ to develop into a ‘change agent’.\nApplication possibilities for teachers from all disciplines: the workshop is ideal for individual teachers\, departments or complete teams of teachers.\n\nDo you feel responsible for making students aware of sustainability and the transition to new economic thinking? Then this workshop is a must for you! \nRegister here (by 8 December 2025).
