On arrival, new participants are involved in an intensive one month study and
research curriculum centered on learning and reflecting about global warming
and climate change; both in the classroom and through research activities. During
this month, the participants go through the following program periods:
• Period 1: “Gaia warning”
• Period 2: Digging deeper / Research activities
Throughout the program, there are three anchor themes from where to choose all
the climate compliance actions and research activities:
• Food and water
• Energy
• Protection against global warming and climate
change
Period 1: “Gaia warning”
In this period, participants have structured and teacher-led courses about global
warming, climate change, sustainable agriculture, pollution, the oceans and other
related topics. Participants also reflect on the actions that can be done together to
adapt to the changing climate in the island and around the world.
Duration of the period: 14 days
Period 2: Digging deeper / Research activities
In this period the teams conduct research activities using RVA’s digital and
physical library as well as the internet. Each team makes their own self-
organized study plan with scheduled tutorials, peer-reviews and group
discussions.
The purpose of this period is to provide a
learning environment that initiates curiosity
through reading, writing and lots of debates.
Duration of the period: 14 days
