"I would like to share with you how glad I am that I
attended The Greening Education Event in your city and to
thank you for the perfect organisation and the interesting
conference you made. Although we are all back to work now,
we are enriched with such useful information, a lot of
knowledge and new contacts with different people that surely
will help us improve our common efforts to make our
environment more healthy….Thank you for making all this
happen!

"I was particularly impressed with the
multi-level integration that the case studies demonstrated,
and the cross-pollination that occurred as a result of the
conference presentations. The case studies from Germany and
Argentina demonstrated an 'integration' of strategy: linking
curriculum and labour market training to work practices
within schools, to government and social stakeholders, to
(in the case of Argentina), state-level economic development
plans. The 'cross-pollination' was a result of learning
across continents--for Canada, the example of integrating
education and work practices is of particular importance,
and one that we can develop via research and pilot studies
in the Canadian context.

"The International Greening Education Event was of high quality, which was due to the multilateral program covering the main issues of sustainable development, the international renowned speakers, and the motivated audience which was permanently and intensely involved in the conference. It can be assumed that the results of this event will have long lasting effects with regard to education as well as to the environment. Thus, the Greening Education Event has made a contribution to the sustainable future of our planet."

"I would like to mention how great it was for me to be part of this international event. I have brought back home lots of new ideas to develop in Argentine…..During the event, I had the possibility of learning and exchanging knowledge of greening education with very interesting professionals from all over the world and join a network that will facilitate me keep in contact with them and join together to develop new projects in the field of education and sustainable development”

"This is one of the most awesome
sustainability event, 'Greening Education Event' which I
have ever attended. A blend of intellectual discourse, open
discussion, networking and entertainment had made the
conference a wonderful and relax one. Thanks to the
wonderful and painstaking job done by the organising team
which was lead by Prof. Rab, Heidrun, and the rest whose
names I could not remember. Another thumbs-up for the team
is that we got all the wonderful conference materials to be
disseminated to others within such a short time. Bravo for a
job well done. This is what 'networking' is actually about".
Thank you and warmest regards,
