Methodology & assessment

1. Icebreaker Activities: Icebreaker activities are incorporated at the beginning of Day 1 to create a welcoming and inclusive learning environment, allowing participants to get to know each other and build rapport.
2. Lecture-Based Learning: Traditional lectures are used to provide foundational knowledge on key concepts such as environmental sustainability, climate change science, and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These sessions are supplemented with multimedia presentations, case studies, and real-world examples to enhance understanding.
3. Group Discussions and Brainstorming: Group discussions and brainstorming sessions are conducted throughout the course to encourage active participation and peer learning. Participants have opportunities to share their perspectives, exchange ideas, and collaboratively explore solutions to environmental challenges.
4. Case Studies: Case studies are used to illustrate theoretical concepts and demonstrate practical applications in real-world contexts. Participants analyze case studies of successful sustainability projects, climate adaptation initiatives, and community-led actions to deepen their understanding and draw lessons for their own practice.
5. Hands-On Activities: Hands-on activities, such as group projects, role-playing exercises, and simulations, are incorporated to provide practical learning experiences and develop problem-solving skills. Participants engage in activities like designing adaptation plans, developing advocacy campaigns, and creating educational materials to apply theoretical knowledge to real-life situations.
6. Reflection and Action Planning: Regular reflection sessions are integrated into the course to allow participants to reflect on their learning, identify personal insights and growth areas, and set goals for future action. Action planning exercises empower participants to develop concrete plans for implementing environmental sustainability initiatives and contributing to the achievement.
