Principles for Sustainability Action Lab collaborations 

The following principles guide Sustainability Action Lab collaborations: 

• Sustainability Action Lab collaborations are based on partnership. 
• Collaborations are designed to be reciprocal – to be equally beneficial to all involved. 
• The focus of the collaboration is identified through a process of co-creation to enable rich interaction and to create a high-quality co-learning experience for all participants.  
• The prior learning and expertise of participants is respected throughout. 
• Collaborations have a clear sustainability focus and promote the possibility of positive societal change towards achieving the SDGs. 
• Activity is designed to be completed within the allocated time. 
• Collaboration outputs are shared with the Collaboration Partner through an exchange that allows students to reflect on the collaboration activity and to share their reflections with the Collaboration Partner. 
• Collaborations have clear personal and academic learning outcomes for students as part of programmes.  
• Collaboration activity requires students to reflect regularly and critically on their learning experiences: to allow students to make sense of their experiences and to learn about themselves as learners; to ensure students link their real-world learning to their classroom knowledge; and to ensure that students reflect on, question, and challenge, the causes and effects of societal challenges.   
• Collaborations are evaluated by all partners – students, TU Dublin academics, and Collaboration Partners - so that TU Dublin’s co-learning programme continues to develop to meet the changing needs of participants and of society.
