provide a deep and potentially transformative learning experience in
sustainability-related topics that embrace holistic perspectives. Read

Having
attended a Schumacher course in 1998, Karen was inspired to create
ICIS, combining her expertise in design education and personal
development with her belief in the need for a more sustainable society,
economy and natural environment. Since 2001, ICIS has been educating
designers, architects and other creative professionals in
sustainability, creativity and innovation. Read more about ICIS on www.schumachercollege.org.uk.
Her
joint position may offer the opportunity for fruitful collaboration
between the two organisations, as there are mutual interests and an
intersection of vision. In the meantime, ICIS will continue to operate
as an independent educational foundation in Denmark.
