Training Course
19-24 September 2022 | Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg
The Sustainability Academy: building Future Scenarios is a training course focused on sustainability in youth work. Over 5 days, the participants will be invited to build desired future scenarios using the Futures Thinking methodology. In small groups they will focus on 4 possible directions for sustainable futures focused on important topics, e.g. circular economy, tech and Robotics, Social Entrepreneurship and Future of Food/ Food Sovereignty.
During the course the participants will be assisted with three Design Thinking coaches experienced in non-formal education and Futures Thinking as well as 3 experts in areas of Sustainable development, Circular Economy and Social Entrepreneurship. Together they will explore potential solutions for more sustainable lifestyles and communities.
At the end of the training the working groups will elaborate the proposals for the positive future scenarios and reflect on how the futures thinking tools can help them to work with young people on the delicate (and sometimes scary) topic of planning the futures, being motivated to act, lead and get involved.
The main objectives are:
The overall course time will be divided between plenary sessions (keynotes, input sessions, virtual visits or the projects in Luxemburg), small group work (assisted by coaches and experts), individual learning (research and testing). Participation in the whole course is required to be able to receive the certificate.
*currently there are no COVID19 restrictions in Luxembourg, if new measures are imposed the candidates will be informed at the moment of selection.
