Healthy Start launches new Transdisciplinary Education Website for students, researchers, educators, and professionals

The societal challenges of today are more complex than ever. Whether it concerns health, inequality of opportunity, or sustainable development—one thing is clear: the solutions cannot be found within the boundaries of a single discipline or sector. That’s why Convergence Healthy Start is fully committed to transdisciplinary working and learning.

We are proud to launch our new transdisciplinary web pages for students, early-career researchers, experienced educators, and professionals. What do they have in common? The ambition to look beyond boundaries, connect perspectives, and create impact together.

Open Access Modules

The first step in our offering is the Transdisciplinary Research Module(s)—freely accessible and flexibly deployable. These modules give participants the opportunity to select the themes that best fit their learning needs and professional context. In this way, you can easily develop essential skills such as working across disciplines and engaging societal partners in research.

At Healthy Start, education is not a side activity, but a direct pathway to impact. By translating research results and insights into scalable, online learning modules, we create accessible learning experiences for students, professionals, and researchers. But transdisciplinary learning is not something you just ‘do’—it requires practice, reflection, and collaboration. That’s why in the coming period we will continue to build a varied and growing portfolio of trainings, workshops, digital modules, and a vibrant learners’ community.

Building future-proof education together within Convergence

Education plays a crucial role in realizing Healthy Start’s mission: contributing to a healthy and promising future for the next generations. Education is the place where new ideas emerge, where practice and science meet, and where tomorrow’s researchers and leaders develop.

So, take a look at our new education web pages, explore what’s already available, and stay up to date with the new modules that will be added soon. Get inspired, join in—and strengthen your transdisciplinary toolkit.
