UNESCAP Green Growth E-Learning Platform
Published on
In response of the needs of policy makers and stakeholders in the Asia-Pacific region, ESCAP, the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) and the Regional Resource Centre for Asia and the Pacific have partnered with the Government of the United Kingdom to offer interactive, on-line training courses related to Green Growth.
Objectives
The Green Growth on-line e-Learning facility takes an integrative, multidisciplinary approach towards promoting environmentally-sustainable economic growth. Moreover, the facility is designed to educate participants about the most innovative, cost-effective approaches to Green Growth. Structured around a series of interactive training modules, the curriculum encourages participants to actively reflect on the ways a Green Growth strategy can be adapted to their home country. The modules will enable:
- The introduction of Green Growth as a solution for addressing the development challenges facing countries in Asia and the Pacific.
- The familiarization of participants with appropriate tools to measure emerging environmental/economic/social issues in the region.
