Course Overview
How will this Environment Sustainability and Policy Training Course help me?
This Environmental Sustainability Planning and Policy Training course will increase your expertise and grasp of ecological theory, concepts, and practice, as well as the capacity to impact and progress policy and planning solutions for government, corporate, and regulatory organizations’ global sustainability concerns.
What will I learn from this course?
This is an introductory course to environmental and sustainability planning that will quickly explore the key principles that planners need to understand about these topics. Ecological theory, geographical analysis, and planning, environmental economics, environmental services and power planning are some of the topics covered. Each of these subjects will be examined in the context of planning, to equip you to deal with these challenges in your professional practice. As a review course, we will concentrate on key themes and basic ideas rather than the deep or technical examination that a more specialized course may provide. However, studying various environmental problems has the advantage of allowing us to evaluate the relationships between them.
This Zoe course will empower you with the opportunity to learn essential skills in a rapidly evolving professional field, as well as make you highly marketable in a variety of disciplines, allowing you to contribute to the building of more sustainable urban settings. This course will look at social and environmental sustainability using stakeholder theory, systems thinking, and case studies as a base, to give participants the knowledge and skills they need to make longer economic value while also building ecological health and good infrastructure.
Course Objectives
Our objective is to master the essential ideas and themes of sustainable planning. Participants should be able to:
- Describe key ecological concepts and how they apply to plan practice after the course
- Propose environmentally friendly site designs
- Using spatial data, do simple manipulations and computations
- Identify the planning tools that are utilized to address sustainability issues
- Recognize your knowledge gaps in terms of sustainable planning
- To carefully analyze the worldwide concerns of sustainability
- To get a better grasp of how intricate human-environment interactions are
- To improve critical thinking, debate, and writing abilities
- Examine diverse planning approaches, such as those that emphasize delivery against environmental objectives, teamwork, and improvement
- Environmental Auditing (EIA) and Strategic Environmental Analysis (SEA) are two important methods for improving sustainability (SEA)
- Determine the path of renewable energy development and environmental conservation in the future
Training Methodology
This Environmental Sustainability Planning and Policy Training course is based on the adult learning paradigm and is very practical and results-driven. Before taking participants through conversation and practice to help them make sense of the themes, the facilitator will offer a lot of feedback. Participating in class discussions is an important part of this course, and case-based discussions require a significant amount of preparation time. We will attempt to apply the sustainability principles discussed in the lecture to a real-world planning problem during the case discussions. Students will be asked to offer a recommendation and argue their viewpoint in cases that are arranged around an issue or choice that needs to be made.
There will be suggestions and help on how to prepare for case-based learning. The scenarios are designed to teach you how to think like a decision-maker. You will be required to choose a plan of action based on solid reasoning in the situations.
This Environmental Sustainability Planning and Policy Training course follows the “Do–Review–Learn–Apply Model”.
