RCE events in connection to WEEC2015 – World Environmental Education Congress

 

Between June 29 and July 2 the 8th World Environmental Education Congress will take place in Gothenburg, Sweden. http://weec2015.org . In connection to this congress there are a number of RCE events planned.

In the late afternoon of June 30 there will be a plenary session “The Global Action Programme on ESD – Global, Regional and National Perspectives” on the GAP from a global, international, regional and national perspective. Presenting the GAP framework and examples of global, regional and national implementation plans and strategies. As a follow up activity the Nordic RCE networks plan a side event in the early evening the same day. We will discuss how the RCE networks can support the GAP, and how GAP can support the progress of the RCE networks. RCE West Sweden will be the main organizer of this event which means we will use the Open Space form for the discussions. More information will follow on https://weec2015.org and http://rcewest.se/english/

On the afternoon of July 2nd, after the closing session of the WEEC2015, you are invited to a day in Borås, a community not far from Gothenburg. A city where the center is filled with sculptures and street-art. Sharing our various experiences and hopes in the concept of social sculptures is on the top of our agenda for the day. Of course you are welcome even without previous experiences! Just join the event and enjoy the excursion.

After the excursion to Borås you are welcomed to another RCE event in the West Sweden Region. Since RCE West Sweden is a polycentric network we leave the big (in a Swedish context…) city Gothenburg to go to Ed. We’ll take the train there and during July 3rd to July 5th we invite you to participate in a workshop centered on Learning 4 change. Here we will, in a systematic way, develop and test methods and tools supporting change process leaders.

For those who want to continue exploring the Open Space form of developing your meetings and discussions there will be another day, July 6th, in Ed to do this.

Even more RCE events are planned and we will keep you informed through different channels, but by looking on the https://weec2015.org and http://rcewest.se/english/ websites on a regular basis can keep yourself updated in a more active way.

A small cost might apply for the activities, but that will be clear from the registration information for the events.

If you are interested in joining the WEEC2015 at the same time you attend the RCE events, please send an email to loc@gmv.gu.se and we will help you.
