What is the ToT Course?

Accelerate Change:

Learn to teach, facilitate, and train with purpose. Gaia Education's ToT course equips you to engage communities, foster collaboration, and drive sustainable action. Join a global community of learners and discover why participatory methods are crucial for the future of our planet.

Our 2-day module focuses on implementing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at the local level, using innovative approaches like our whole-systems inspired SDG Flashcards.


Course Pillars:

  1. Facilitating Participatory Learning Journeys: Empower learners to embrace sustainability on all levels. Gain the skills to facilitate transformative experiences and build learning communities.

  2. Deepening the Edge Work: Explore the intersection of the known and unknown. Learn to innovate, adapt, and thrive in diverse community settings, maximizing impact through creativity and collaboration.

  3. Sustainable Development Goals – Local Implementation: Navigate the tension between global goals and local contexts. Decode UN conventions, integrate SDGs vertically, and translate global agreements into meaningful local action.
