Soneva Namoona NGO exists to co-create, pilot and spread innovations that empower zero-waste communities across the Maldives. Our commitment to the elimination of single-use plastic (SUP) drives our strategic approach to addressing the social and systemic problems associated with this waste stream, which exacerbates the environmental crisis on small coral islands.
Workshop description: This personal leadership workshop aims to focus on participants’ own mindsets and personal experiences to navigate and understand their own power and potential as leaders and changemakers to achieve transformation. The session is designed to push the audience (specifically educators) to consider their roles as leaders and changemakers in their communities and especially in their classrooms, giving insight into a new vision for the future of education that is value-driven and experiential.
Target audience: Teachers, educators, school leadership, community workers, NGO staff, lifelong learners
