This Erasmus mobility has been good for several reasons. On the one hand, for the professional development of Professor Cecilia Casas who is coordinating an line of research on social design issues at ESDA and which is related to the content of the short course she has taken. On the other hand, it has implied a direct benefit for the students, as Cecilia has implemented this knowledge in practical teaching. In addition, this has been an opportunity to share and make contacts with the Chelsea College of Art in London and to be able to start research relations between the two institutions. We have also thought of sharing knowledge in other ways, such as inviting them to give lectures and participate in the Design Conferences that we hold at ESDA.
One of the objectives has been to establish an international collaboration between the ESDA (Escuela Superior de Diseño de Aragón) and the UAL, specifically the Chelsea College of Art. We have increased our educational quality, making possible a training mobility for Professor Cecilia Casas in one of the best design schools at an international level.
