ARCH students got
the opportunity to participate in the 4-day Erasmus+ Co-Life project, organised
in Goa. This international initiative brings together universities from
Denmark, India, Belgium, and Finland to collaborate on impact-driven
entrepreneurship, solving real-world challenges through innovation and
teamwork.
Being part of such a
global opportunity allows our students to engage with diverse cultures, gain
international perspectives, and develop skills that go beyond the classroom. As
they collaborate, exchange ideas, and tackle meaningful challenges, they are
shaping the future of entrepreneurial impact and design thinking.
At the Goa Institute
of Management (GIM), engaged in thought-provoking activities, including
creating mood boards to understand how culture influences behavior and
creativity.
They also engaged in
meaningful discussions on sustainability during the International Roundtable
Conference and participated in a hands-on Design Thinking & Learning by
Doing (LbD) Workshop. This experience allowed them to explore impactful
solutions and refine their problem-solving abilities.
Students visited the
Sahakari Spice Farm in Ponda, Goa. This sustainable farming model combines
modern irrigation systems with traditional methods, showing how innovation can
help preserve heritage while supporting local communities. The farm’s
transformation of barren land into a thriving green space is a true example of
sustainability and growth.
Our students gained valuable insights into the
connections between sustainability, heritage, and entrepreneurship, taking
lessons they will carry forward into their future work.
