Online Courses

Our online courses at People for Earth provide diverse content aimed at cultivating Earth-centered thinking and practical skills to respond to the ecological crisis.

- The courses are designed by structuring them into small and independent modules, enabling the diverse modules to be reconfigured into new lectures, much like the evolution of living organisms.
- People for Earth's online courses are co-produced with Bigdata COSS at Seoul National University.
