Potential of creative project work

This book examines the extent to which creative learning and thinking styles can strengthen individual and collective resilience. Against the backdrop of escalating multiple crises the question of the prospects for success of purely linear solution strategies is becoming increasingly louder. Is the way modern life is supposed to function still inherently effective? One possible answer may be that the complex and interwoven set of problems calls for innovative approaches and interconnected ways of thinking. The considerations are based on practical experience in creative project work combined with key findings from resilience research. On this basis it will be examined whether creative solutions and expansive thinking can provide us with added value for society as a whole across multiple dimensions enabling us to meet the contemporary challenges of human life in late capitalism in the 2020s in a strengthened and constructive manner.
