SciCultureD is a European Erasmus+ project that brings together science, the arts, and entrepreneurship to address societal challenges through transdisciplinary education and co-creation. Running from 2022 to 2024, the project concluded with a public conference in Valletta, Malta, showcasing innovative approaches to learning, collaboration, and transformation.
Building on the original SciCulture project (2018–2021), SciCultureD delivered intensive five-day courses in Athens (2022), Bochum (2023), and Valletta (2024). Each course focused on locally relevant themes such as sustainability, cultural entrepreneurship, and urban transformation, bringing together participants from diverse disciplines to explore creative and collaborative solutions.
In addition to the courses, the project produced a range of valuable outputs. The SciCultureD CourseKit serves as an open-access toolkit for educators looking to design and facilitate their own transdisciplinary learning experiences. A Self-Reflection Tool was also developed to support participants and educators in assessing the integration of transdisciplinary thinking and practice.
city2science was actively involved in co-designing and delivering key components of the project. We developed and facilitated the Bochum course in 2023, which focused on the transformative role of third places in knowledge-based urban development.

We also conducted a comprehensive Literature Review on Transdisciplinary Education in Higher Education Institutions exploring current methodologies, motivations, and challenges across the field.
With over ten years of experience in international cooperation, city2science supports partners across Europe through the development of strong project concepts and funding applications. Beyond proposal writing, we contribute strategically to funded initiatives—as facilitators, trainers, and project partners—particularly at the intersection of science, urban development, and social innovation.
