Marco Antonio Teixeira participated in the 2nd Seminar as part of the 2021-2023 cohort of the Postdoc Academy for Transformational Leadership. The event was hosted by the Institute for Sustainable Development and Learning at the Leuphana University of Lüneburg, and it took place in the city of Lenzen, in the Elbe biosphere reserve.

The second seminar explored the potentials as well as the challenges of transdisciplinary research environments and transdisciplinary learning processes, including individual reflections of the participants on their own profile and portfolio as a researcher.

The Postdoc Academy for Transformational Leadership is an initiative of the Robert Bosch Stiftung and a joint project of the Robert Bosch Stiftung and the four academic centres Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (IRI THESys), the Institute for Sustainable Development and Learning at Leuphana University of Lüneburg, the Stockholm Resilience Centre and the Dutch Research Institute for Transitions (DRIFT) in Rotterdam. It provides an intensive high-end training with four seminars in two years that broaden the research competencies of postdocs and promote their qualifications towards transdisciplinary leadership.
