    Description

    In these times when the world as we knew it has undergone instantaneous change, we need to focus on changes that will make the world a better place for all and link the COVID-19 recovery with a transition to a low-carbon economy while addressing social inequalities at the same time.

A certificate is given upon full participation and completion of the training.

    Topics covered:
    • Positive Futures Scenarios and Climate Justice
