- About the Course
CliVEx, formally titled “Climate Virtual ExChange: Enhancing Climate Awareness in Europe and the Southern Mediterranean Area,” is an initiative dedicated to fostering a vibrant intercultural dialogue. Bringing together students from diverse backgrounds in Europe and the Southern Mediterranean region, the project revolves around the crucial issue of climate change.
Our primary goal is to raise climate awareness, transcending geographical and linguistic barriers. CliVEx provides a unique platform for students to engage in discussions, share experiences, and collaborate on climate-related issues. We aim to deepen the understanding of climate change’s multifaceted dimensions and to inspire a global perspective on this challenge.
The Sharing Perspectives Foundation is as partner in the project responsible for the design and implementation of the Virtual Exchange course Climate Justice: From Inequality to Inclusion.
‘Climate Justice: From Inequality to Inclusion’ is an interactive, international, online learning experience about one of humanity’s biggest challenges: Finding just and inclusive ways to respond to the climate crisis. Through Virtual Exchange, students from diverse national and cultural backgrounds learn with – and from – each other, by engaging in dialogue, skill-building activities, and an activating group project.
