<br>
Misschien hebben jullie al gehoord over het nationale klimaatexamen dat in heel Nederland wordt gehouden. Ook aan de VU wordt een examen georganiseerd, door het Sustainability Office en het Amsterdam Sustainability Institute. Dit landelijke examen van een uur
daagt deelnemers op een leuke en leerzame manier uit om meer te leren over klimaatverandering, duurzaamheid en wat we samen kunnen doen om dit tegen te gaan. Onderwerpen als oorzaken en gevolgen van klimaatverandering, klimaatadaptatie en circulaire economie
komen aan bod. Na het examen kunnen deelnemers hun klimaatkennis beoordelen en weten ze hoe ze klimaatactie kunnen ondernemen.<br>
<br>
Wil je zelf meedoen?<br>
Dit is een geweldige kans om je examenstress nog eens te beleven en je kennis over klimaatverandering en duurzaamheid te testen en uit te breiden. Je doet waardevolle inzichten, praktische ideeën en inspiratie op, zodat je een belangrijke rol kunt spelen en
je steentje kunt bijdragen! Je kunt je hier aanmelden: <a href="https://klimaatexamen.nl/amsterdam-hoofdgebouw-vu">
Maak het Klimaatexamen in Amsterdam!</a><br>
<br>
Nodig je collega's uit!<br>
Het examen is een geweldige kans voor je eigen team of afdeling om hun kennis te testen, en zelfs buiten de grenzen van de VU, aangezien dit een openbaar evenement is. We moedigen je aan om je collega's uit te nodigen en het examen te promoten tijdens afdelingsvergaderingen.
Je kunt deze e-mail doorsturen of het materiaal van het klimaatexamenplatform bekijken:

<br>
Wanneer en waar?<br>
Bij de VU houden we het examen op 19 mei en beginnen we om 15.30 uur in de Global Room (HG 01A34) met inloop en registratie. Deelnemers worden verwelkomd door een klimaatexpert, waarna ze naar de zaal gaan waar het examen van 16.00 tot 17.00 uur plaatsvindt.
Aansluitend is er gelegenheid om na te praten tijdens een borrel.</span><span lang="en-NL" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
