I really enjoyed the course and I learnt a lot about sustainability and the different aspects of living a sustainable life. I also learnt about the many effects that climate change has on different eco systems. The course has inspired me to be more conscious of the impact I am having on the environment. The course material, videos and activities were very well planned and organised, it was very easy to understand.
Vaishali Vignesh

I have to say, it is a very innovative approach to understanding the nuances of Sustainability and ESG practices around the world. A good go-to program for someone wanting to increase knowledge in this sector. Also, the simulation, where you take the roles of different stakeholders in making a circular economy- is quite enticing, as well.

As I was designing the game, I was focused on ensuring that more people were aware of the climate crisis by creating a simulation. Using many positive and negative reinforcement strategies, I tried to stimulate in people a sense of urgency so that they can apply the lessons learnt via the game in their daily life.

The email immediately made me interested and the course was even more fun. Unlike most courses this checked my understanding and the activities that it made me do just boosted my learning by a lot. Overall it was one of the most fun courses I had done in a while.
