Ideathons offer a format for tackling complex societal issues by bringing together diverse participants to generate creative solutions within a limited timeframe. They address challenges like inclusivity in urban planning by using scenarios in LDTS such as creating accessible public spaces. The structured approach of ideathons relies on interdisciplinary teamwork, where participants are guided to brainstorm, develop, and pitch innovative ideas. They engage with real-world challenges provided by local stakeholders, learning from mentors and peers. By leveraging a format that prioritizes creativity over product development, ideathons embed future skills through agile working and digital collaboration. This MLU teaches ideathon methodologies through hands-on collaboration, emphasizing digital and transformative skills. It covers setting up challenges and forming teams, facilitated by mentors and supporting diversity. This structure promotes resilience by strengthening future skills and preparing learners for adaptive problem solving in professional and social environments.
