[English Abstract] :
Between September 2019 and June 2022, within the framework of a 3-year project financed by the European Union (EU) - Jean Monnet Module (JMM) -, Wenzao Ursuline University (Kaohsiung, Taiwan) proposed for the first time in Taiwan an EMI and transdisciplinary course entitled: “European Union‘s Environmental Health Policy, its Achievements, and main Challenges”. Designed as a co-taught course, it was opened to Taiwanese and Foreign students from all departments with an interest in the topic. The module aimed at offering a tailor-made transdisciplinary course on EU policies and concrete actions in the field of environmental health, defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as addressing “all the physical, chemical and biological factors to a person, and all the related factors that can potentially affect health”.
This course discussed the EU's regional and international responses to some of the most urgent and common global issues linking environment and health, including chemical hazards, air pollution, climate change, water quality, plastics use,... to name a few, and compared them with the responses provided by Taiwan. After an overview of the pedagogical principles and goals of the module, this presentation aims at explaining how this project was executed (especially in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic), how foreign and Taiwanese students were practically involved through different types of learning activities (games, (online) exhibition, oral presentations...), and what kind of challenges students and coordinators had to address. Finally, the concrete results of this module will be presented, discussed, and put into perspective.
