New course by UN SDSN SDGs Academy

On behalf of the UN SDSN SDGs Academy:  

Dear students and colleagues: 

We have an exciting new course opportunity to announce. Through a partnership with the Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) Mediterranean and Erasmus+ Virtual Exchange, we are excited to offer a customized co-learning and exchange opportunity with a diversity of fellow students throughout Europe and the Southern Mediterranean through the course "Sustainable Food Systems: A Mediterranean Perspective."

Participating in this exchange will allow you to dive deeply and practically into the topics and themes of the course through facilitated discussions with peers that are geographically and culturally diverse but that also share an interest and study-focus in this field. It will enable you to build cross-regional subject knowledge as well as professional networks. You will also be rewarded an Erasmus+ Virtual Exchange badge certifying your participation. 

What does the exchange entail?

Held from June 24 - July 29, this 5-week exchange will entail completing the 10-module Sustainable Food Systems course while also engaging in intercultural dialogue during weekly live online group meetings where you will share ideas, experiences, and reflections based on the course themes. The meetings will be held in English.
