Here are some great resources on career advising and student recruitment! More information can be found at: https://wedocs.unep.org/bitstream/handle/20.500.11822/35070/GGEGJ.pdf

Advising on career pathways: Have faculty advisers and career advisers/offices share with students information about: 1) green career pathways, 2) bringing a green lens to any job, and 3) entrepreneurial opportunities e.g. Green and Sustainability Jobs: Career Resources and Sustainable Energy Jobs Platform.

Advisor trainings: Periodic trainings of career advisers. When advisers are up-to date with pressing global issues and job market trends, they are able to provide optimized guidance to students. (from GGD)

Skills awareness: Organise a “Skills day for Green Economy” – invite professionals, as well as programme alumni or others who are representative of the institution’s student body in technical sectors as well guest speakers and workshop leaders.
