  • view an agro-food network as a system as well as identify and describe important stakeholders and their relationships.
  • understand the use and application of different innovation methods.
Learning Outcome and  Competences Students will be able to:
  • analyze system dynamics and identify connections, drivers & pain points. Develop interventions and project ideas based on an impact model.

Module Content The students will work in groups to select prepared cases representing existing companies in the field of preneurship (social entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship) and will develop an “transformation plan” for their chosen case.

Throughout the module, various experts will give inputs on key system dynamics, transformation pathways, frameworks and tools for a regenerative food system. Students will learn and apply these concepts and apply them collaboratively in co-creation on their cases.  

Students will learn and apply methods and tools such as the Theory of Change, Value Proposition Canvas, and Sustainable Business Model Canvas to create or transform organizations into agents of change for a regenerative food system.
