We are glad to announce the launch of the new CCB "Gender Equality and the Baltic Sea" online course, developed under the CCB Gender & Equality strategy and work.
The course helps to understand how to apply a gender-sensitive approach to environmental work. With each lecture, participants can learn how gender and environmental problems are connected and how to practically implement gender principles in environmental projects.
How is it structured and what does it include?
- The course is free of charge and consists of 4 online lessons.
- The format allows you to take it at any convenient time, and also return to it after.
- The course is made for CCB Member Organizations, environmental activists, NGO workers and all who are willing to use gender optics in their environmental projects.
- The content is understandable for participants of any level of knowledge in the topic.
- Each lesson contains a short video, list of useful resources and an interactive test for self-check.
