Against this background, science as well as different stakeholders from society, politics and business are obliged to think about a sustainable future and resilient societies. This year the Danube:Future Interdisciplinary School (DIS) gives PhD-students and young scientists from the Alps-Adriatic Rector’s Conference (AARC) and the Danube Rector’s Conference (DRC) universities the opportunity to discuss these issues – with a particular focus on the Danube region and the question of resilience and social peace – and to develop research proposals within this broad context. The Danube:Future Interdisciplinary School offers a well- coordinated program of high-profile lectures, methodological inputs regarding interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity, thematic excursions and professionally supervised working phases for project proposal writing. Up to now, global change research has largely focused on natural, environmental and economic aspects. Considering the fact that Horizon 2020 has determined the social sciences and humanities (SSH) as a horizontal subject to be considered in all Grand Challenges, the Danube:Future Interdisciplinary School 2017 puts a special focus on the cultural and social implications of global change on the Danube River Basin. Interdisciplinary approaches of SSH can www.danubefuture.eu [email protected] integrate natural, cultural and ethnic heritage and their hybrid forms as well as local traditions and knowledge.
