▶Objectives
By sharing academic resources, the consortium’s overall aim is to increase analytic and professional skills among students and Lifelong learners to improve their competencies in CCM through use of GIS and RS tools online. Herein, GeoCLIC introduces the Work-based learning approach to develop training projects and internships in areas impacted by Climate Change. A particular priority is to motivate participation of female learners. 5 modules and OERs (Open Educational Resources) related to CCM will be developed and further enhanced by the use of innovative online learning tools and international collaboration. Employability skills will be boosted by hands-on practices and direct contact with employers. To transfer the project benefits to society, multiple interactions between educators, researchers, environment companies/NGOs and decisionmakers are planned. In summary, we aim to improve employability among enrolled and unemployed graduates as CC analyst in earth observation, GIS/RS sector; strengthen cooperation among GIS/RS enterprises and academia; ensure sustainability with OER and MOODLE program in geoinformation in CCM.
