Image Credit: Ole Henrik Kongsvik

We live in a changing world and creativity is important both in organizations and in a digital work life where there is a need to be innovative and able to adjust to a rapid changing society. This also includes schools and higher education institutions that prepare young people for an unknown future (21 Century skills). Further, as a society we are facing new social and global challenges that require interdisciplinary and innovative solutions.

The LEAD C-PRO project is an umbrella project comprising several sub-projects developing models and concepts for creative knowledge processes and how such processes are led in different learning contexts in organizations and other workplaces, schools, and in higher education.
