Cycloop Course on “Facilitating multi-actor collaboration for sustainable resources management”



The intensive training course “Facilitating multi-actor collaboration for sustainable resources management” will take place in Brussels, Belgium, from April 16 till 24, 2012. It is a joined initiative of Cycloop, network of experienced action-researchers specialized in multi-actor collaboration and sustainability (www.cycloop.org) and the Centre for Sustainability Management of the HUBrussel (Brussels University College www.hubrussel.be, part of the Association K.U.Leuven).

The course is based on the principles of experiential learning. We invite participants to use their own experiences with multi-actor collaborative initiatives as an input for the course. The course starts with a multi-actor simulation to provide shared experiences on which we can reflect and build during the following course days. All sessions will be highly interactive.
