What Did You Learn?

One Question for our Eco Practicum NYC 2015 Participants 

After many months of planning, coordinating, and curriculum building, last week we ran our second ever Eco Practicum in New York City. And what a practicum it was! Our participants were unbelievably open, enthusiastic, and energetic; and our experts were generous and inspiring. So, what did our participants learn?  Here are some answers from our newest alumni:

"Everything from community engagement to activism strategies"


"I mean there was so much! I think I got a much better grasp on how the city runs in general and how all these departments, organizations, and businesses receive funding. It was so valuable to actually go see these places and see these new technologies in action. "

"The practical experience I had taught me more in a week than in a semester in college. Everything I learned was very valuable – water treatment, urban farming, green roofs, the list goes on and on."

"The most valuable lessons came from our involvement with the Bed-Stuy community and experiencing the different sustainable projects and programs happening on the neighborhood level." 


"Everything. Truly." 

"Thank you so so much for everything: for the fun, the reflection, the critical thinking, the conversations, and the inspiration."
