Our response
Our response: as citizens and world community members to the
issue of climate change.
“To know what is going on, takes sense. To know what to do about it, takes wisdom”.

of Silence” – Making Space for Creativity- by John Lane, published by Green

own ethical enterprise or teaching practice, either independently, or with the
support of Eco-Campus services and SOL Community support on a Co-venture
basis.
Schools’ outreach
We especially welcome applications from SOL Community Members who want to
set up a Schools’ Outreach programme, or engage with schools, educators,
students and the next generation who will inherit whatever we leave behind.
This option is designed for those who want to combine language study with
business school experience, orienting themselves around the core values of
sustainable Social Enterprise, in order to live and work in the country of their
choice.
