Learning Objectives (*May be subject to change)
By Rachel Niemiec
1. To compare the application of sustainability from classroom projects to the real world
Research past and future projects of CIFAL and assess the facets of achieving sustainable urbanization.
Understand this company’s resources and how they maintain sustainable finances from private and public sectors.
Ask colleagues/superiors how they prepared themselves toward the achievement of sustainability. Was this learned directly through the job, or in previous education?
2. Observe how this internship condones international development and global connections
Discuss with superiors (Vinicyus) how international relations plays a role with this organization. Does CIFAL in Curitiba also work alongside the other 8 CIFAL organizations across the globe? Do they all have the same regulations? Do they hold similar meetings?
How does sustainable urbanization in Curitiba maintain a connection internationally? Does globalization play a part in CIFAL’s themes?
Focus on improving my personal understanding of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals
Research the United Nations millennium goals online and through the company. Take notes during meetings and during official’s lectures.
Understand the principles of FIEP in UNITAR. Why is the UN directly involved with CIFAL? Is it mainly just developing countries?
4. Observe how this organization maintains well-being and overall health for its clients
How does this organization inform its clients? Through the LPD and training programs, what technologies are used? Follow ups?
These are excellent learning objectives and strategies, and they require no revisions. I'm looking forward to working with you this summer. I've had students at this organization in the past, and I trust that it will be good for you.
