Hands-On Learning: Workshops, Discussions, and Activities
The workshops received overwhelmingly positive feedback. Attendees highlighted the engaging format and practical value of the sessions. In particular, the interactive exercises helped solidify understanding of ESG principles and sparked discussions about how to implement them in real-world projects.
Feedback and Insights: What Participants Had to Say
While the event was praised for its clarity and relevance, some participants suggested including more in-depth sector-specific breakout sessions and real-world case studies in future editions to better tailor the content to different professional backgrounds.
