Leaders and change agents in nature conservation are at the forefront of driving change. They have a great amount of knowledge, technologies, and skills for sustainable solutions. What is often (still) lacking is the ability to enable, accompany and implement profound change. Achieving transformative change for a more sustainable future requires to effectively deal with complexity, unpredictability, and simultaneity as well as to establish and maintain successful and cooperative relationships with other stakeholders. This requires specific skills, tools, and mindsets, that the Environmental Leadership Journey provides.

The Environmental Leadership Journey is an intensive training course for conservation professionals and leaders designed for our times. It is deliberately not aimed at specific leadership positions, but at people who, regardless of their position, want to actively advance nature conservation and contribute to transformative change. The course focuses on how profound change happens on the level of Self, Teams, Organisations and Society. The Journey provides knowledge, skills, underlying mindsets, hands-on tools, and time for reflection.

The number of participants is restricted to 16 to enable intensive and interactive exchange and learning.
Soon, more informnation on content and application procedure will be made available here.
