Abstract
Universities have a responsibility to educate future practitioners with the knowledge, skills, and attributes to achieve the shift required to create regenerative futures. Engaging students in real-world problems and thinking creatively about teaching and assessment practices is vital in developing sustainability competencies while also positively contributing to social, environmental, and economic progression and regeneration of local communities. This paper presents an analysis of a live project collaboration between the Birmingham School of Architecture & Design and CoLab Dudley, a social innovation lab based on Dudley High Street, in achieving these goals. The project, exploring regenerative futures for Dudley High Street 2030, engaged students, academics, collaborators, and a wider network of local people in a two-way collaborative learning process, generating new knowledge toward positive change.
