OGS “Extended”

Engelse vlag Profound knowledge

Our-Green-Spine “Extended”-course providing profoud knowledge about the origins of Climate Change, underlying processes  and how to Tackle Climate-Change.

The OGS-“Extended” course provides the In-Depth foundation of OGS (which is based on multi-disciplinairy scientific research) and links theory  to practice in challenging in-depth OGS-Theory and Design-workshops.
