Meilleurs avis pour L'AGE DU DÉVELOPPEMENT DURABLE
The course was very interesting and relevant but a lot of data is outdated, some links are not working or have been changed. I would advise to review the course according to the latest developments.
I like a lot when in the tests you have to search in a graph, it really let you know where to search some informations and also to know how other countries are in that area or situation.
I've opted for this course as a continuation to the Introduction to Sustainable Development and I am glad I did. Very well explained and structured for easy understanding. Thank you!
Loved every part of this course. Really provided a good insight towards sustainable development. Prof Sachs is really great and gives a lot of useful information during the lecture videos.
