IMO says it participated in the annual meeting of the One United Nations Climate Change Learning Partnership (UN CC:Learn) in Bonn, Germany (4 April). The partnership consists of more than 30 UN organizations that have an interest in climate change learning. The partners discussed the next 2017-2020 phase of the project (beginning 1 September 2017) and reviewed the success of the project to date. CC:Learn currently has more than 81,000 registered users and has issued more than 8,700 certificates for courses completed. Eight courses are currently available, in several languages, starting with an introductory e-course providing “everything you need to know” about the basics of climate change, from climate change science to governance.
The CC:Learn e-Learning platform provides quality, freely available e-learning resources on climate change, with each course building on the expertise of relevant UN partners. Theofanis Karayannis represented IMO at the meeting.
