It will help you to start designing sustainable cities and communities. 

The online course is divided into four dimensions; Social, ecological, worldview and economic aspects of sustainability. Each module will give you a short introduction to each aspect and highlights the most important changes needed to create holistic, regenerative communities. The world is in dire need of sustainable development and we have to act now. Educating ourselves is always a great place to create a shift in our mindset from degenerative into a regenerative one.

 "This course has been extremely beneficial for me." 

"This course has been extremely beneficial for me. I will definitely be doing the full course. I love being able to collaborate freely with souls who have realised the web of life needs help healing and restoring its brilliance.

This course has made me extremely positive. It’s great to see all the dimensions at work and that there are so many who have been learning and implementing a new horizon for us as a species.

My perspective now is incredibly positive. I feel excited to learn from diverse sentient beings and feel that we can create a better world using collective intelligence. I love challenges, it seems we are facing the biggest challenge yet for humanity. We are challenged to love and heal so only can make life better"
