Course Details

Would you like to help your community become more environmentally sustainable? This course will give you four tools you can take home to promote green in your community: community planning and design; issue-based organizing and advocacy; education and social marketing; and neighborhood self-management. We'll apply these tools to a variety of real-life sustainable development challenges — including transportation, "greener" housing, creating community green spaces, reducing pollution and more. You'll learn how to measure your community's progress to becoming more sustainable, and explore how promoting sustainability can help you address other key community development issues. The course includes extensive case exercises and the opportunity to work with others to research and develop strategies for the sustainable development challenges that are most important to you.
