Course description

The aim of environmental problem-solving is to avoid the complex psychological biases inherent in decision-making and to allow the engagement of multiple stakeholders, incorporate all available information, and ensure that we know exactly what we are trying to achieve, before making a decision. In this course we will outline a structured approach to problem-solving and decision-making from an environmental perspective and present tools for structuring and solving complex environmental problems. This course is a foundational course for environmental management and should change the way you approach problem-solving both at work and at home.
