A course on holistic sustainability at the Giorgi Woolf School in Rome
As part of Programme Smart & Heart Rome, on Thursday, May 18, a new “Gym for Personal Sustainability” PCTO course will start. The course, which is organised in collaboration with the Rome Campus Bio-Medico University, will involve students in Years 3 and 4 at IIS Giorgi Woolf in Rome (Municipio V).
The thirty-hour course will embrace two school years and allow students to explore human and technological aspects relevant to holistic sustainability with a focus on the technological opportunities for recording and monitoring physiological indices related to psychophysical equilibrium. This will bring students to understand the indivisible unity between body and mind, developing new skills for professional sectors in rapid expansion and based on the alliance between technology and sustainability.
