An empowering learning journey with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
Project Unite
Project Unite offers a sustainability focused program featuring a series of workshops centred on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These workshops are designed for students from Australia and around the world, as well as Group Programs hosted by UOW College.
Immerse yourself in a short, part time program that places a dedicated focus on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This program is crafted for students to explore areas that address urgent environmental, economic, and societal challenges in our contemporary world.
Program structure
Enhance your English proficiency while engaging with Sustainable Development Goals. Examples of class topics include:
- Communication problems and solutions
- Thinking of new ideas
- The connection between people, animals and the environment
- Relationships between different SDGs
- Australia’s indigenous culture
- Sustainability and community
- Sustainability in the workplace
- Environmental education
Gain insight into the SDGS and collaborate with other participants to explore their effective implementation in various contexts. Examples of topics covered include Gender Equality, Life Below Water, Zero Hunger, and Affordable and Clean Energy. Develop a solution to your specific SDG and present a final ‘pitch’ to a panel.
Students and our Group Program partners can opt to enrol in individual workshops or tailor their group program by integrating both enriching units of the Project Unite. If required, Project Unite can be seamlessly integrated into broader Group Programs delivered by UOW College.
