They believe in Transforming Education with Social and Emotional Learning for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
It is the first and only category 1 Research Institute in Asia Pacific and focuses on achieving the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4.7 towards education to foster peaceful and sustainable societies. The primary objective is to work towards UN Sustainable Development Goal 4.7, which aims to advance education in order to foster peaceful and sustainable societies worldwide. This will be accomplished through the creation of initiatives and resources that encourage social and emotional learning, introduce innovative digital teaching methods, and empower young people
This course is designed for learners of 13 years and above and takes them through various aspects of climate change. It not only introduces them to the key concepts of climate science and the global policy discourse but also guides them through some simulations, games, and interactive activities to help build key social and emotional competencies.
