What other say about the course

"I would like to say thank you for this opportunity and privilege to do something totally new in my culture where people like to take order without questioning them. Questioning is a very important action. There is a lot you need to know before you go into the right framing of a question. There are many changes I have to do but I am willing to try when I get the chance."
DANNIE YUNG
Consulting Officer
"This was incredibly helpful and inspiring. As a member of climate advocacy groups, I've struggled with how to empower communities around climate change. This provided fresh perspectives and tools, revitalizing my approach with new energy. My background in organizational change management made me realize we've been solving the same problem repeatedly, but this has offered new, practical approaches to engage people."
CATHERINE SHINNERS
Change Management
"I appreciate this new perspective and context. This whole notion that trying to answer questions through discussion leads us to a knowledge bank that we already have whereas what we're trying to do is develop a new knowledge bank. I think this was a huge revelation and I am looking forward to finding opportunities to spring that on an audience to try to get them to think differently."
