About Week 4

You will read a short text introducing the topics for this week.
Welcome to the final week of the course.

Over the past three weeks, you’ve explored what the climate crisis is all about, what got us into this mess, what changes are needed to get us out of it and what actions you can take to make these changes happen. Now, it’s time to bring it all together and put it into practice.

This week, you’ll turn your learning into your personal roadmap for action. Harnessing the power of imagination, you’ll craft your own story of change.

What if we actually implemented all those measures that tackle the climate crisis and make our lives better? What if, in 10 years’ time, these measures are well underway? What would that feel like? How would we get there? You’ll dream big and set out big and small steps that can get us there.  

Building on these visions and drawing on your interests and perspectives, you’ll create your personal action plan, outlining the concrete steps you can take in your context to contribute to this transformation.

By the end of the week, you’ll have not only a clear sense of the role you want to play in tackling the climate crisis but also a concrete plan to turn your aspirations into action. This is your opportunity to bring together everything you’ve learned and set out what you feel most inspired to do to build the future you want to see.
