This postgraduate certificate invites students and professionals to enrich and strengthen skills in sustainable architecture. In a unique knowledge-driven, interdisciplinary and participatory set-up, the programme pushes innovation, contributes to the Sustainability Development Goals, and enhances competences in Global Citizenship. Learning from, with and for the world, is both motive and means to address 10 learning objectives for the participants. Each year, a Design/Build project is the leitmotif of the programme, which in 2018-2019 was a women’s house in Ouled-Merzoug in Morocco. This paper discusses the experiences of the pilot year in lessons learned and challenges, and outlines tentative perspectives for future editions of the programme. It is concluded that one of the main success factors of programmes set up as ‘Building Beyond Borders’ is the awareness of and anticipation on the dynamisms of intercultural collaboration in build projects. | Keywords: | Sustainable architecture;Project-based learning;Design/Build project | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/36903 | ISBN: | 9788497497947 | DOI: | 10.17979/spudc.9788497497947 | Category: | C1 | Type: | Proceedings Paper | Validations: | vabb 2024 |
