Experienced specialists pass on knowledge on sustainability in Lithuania
Sustain Academy is an initiative that hires sustainability specialists with real-world experience to teach the new generation of specialists. This happens through selling of sustainability courses. The academy positions itself as the first educational organisation in Lithuania that prepares sustainability specialists for businesses and organisations.
The academy has a core team of lecturers, which are usually professionals from other organisations. Thus, teaching sustainability is not their main job. The positioning of lecturers as specialists from other organisations has multiple advantages. Sustain Academy gains credibility by having highly qualified lecturers with real-world practical experience in large businesses. Moreover, the specialists and the organisations they represent improve their public relations by associating with the academy.
Female lecturers
Although the initiative does not explicitly target any vulnerable groups, it may dedicate special attention for women’s perspectives and issues, as most of the lecturers in the initiative are women.
