Why go small when you can go big in committing your multilateral development institute to concur climate change? This is the exact intent of nine presidents of major financial institutions, amongst them the African Development Bank, the World Bank Group*, the New Development Bank and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank. They all gave their vows to the international community in an article entitled “A Truly Global Response to Climate Change” released in mid-December 2017. Stating that “Today’s political climate is uncertain. But climate change is not”, the presidents declared their intent to tackle climate impact with monetary measurements and commitments on various levels. This could be summarized as ensuring the world that they and their clients will put climate actions at the center of attention and the forefront of what they engage in.
“I very much liked the business case-based teaching method. Business cases will be very useful for vocational college students, as real-life examples are much better in inspiring them to start their own business.”“As business cases are based on real-life examples from Georgia, using them in entrepreneurship classes will make them much more amusing for students to attend.”
These are just a few of many comments from teachers who attended a two-day workshop named “Business Case-Based Teaching” held at ISET on the 11th and 12th of January. The workshop was held under the project “Strengthening Entrepreneurial Education and Training in Formal TVET System in Georgia” commissioned by Millennium Challenge Account Georgia (MCA) and implemented in collaboration with the Ministry of Education and Science of Georgia.
