Quotes

It is the best platform to learn diverse subject matter efficiently in short course of time in interactive ambiance from multiple stakeholders.

I achieved the skills to bring my biological knowledge into the real world – putting practical use to a theoretical background, getting introduced to a very broad and complex topic via diverse approaches and different points of view.

Spring School helped me to better understand the management of conservation projects in particular on the preparation of Logical Framework and Financial and Budgeting Management.
