Hosts The Institute for Environment and Development, better known as LESTARI, was established on 1st October 1994 as an independent multi-dicipinary research institute within the structure of Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (National University of Malaysia), to build a foundation and framework for research and training in the areas of environment, economic and social sustainibilities,

sustainibility science and governance and Langkawi Research. It was formed to fulfill the aspirations of the university, as envisioned by the United Nations Conference and Environment and Development (UNCED) held in Rio de Janiero, Brazil, to realise the goals of sustainable development through research and capacity building. LESTARI was also established to serve as a reference centre capable of dealing with environment and developmen issues, assisting government in formulating poicies based on research of a holistivc and balance kind. The development function is directed towards enhancing human resource private sectors. The main thrust of the programmes at LESTARI are research and development, postgraduate education, training and technical assistance. This is supported by publications, conferences, seminars, dialogues and outreach programmes. [http://www.ukm.my/lestari]

The Swedish International Centre of Education for Sustainable Development (SWEDESD) at Gotland University, Visby was established in 2008. The Centre is financed by Sida, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency. SWEDESD's mission is to facilitate the development of the capacity of the leaders, members, employees and other stakeholders of key organizations and communities to carry out educational and communication programs and interventions

allowing people as members of households, communities and organizations to make sense and meaning of the social, economic and ecological challenges surrounding them and to find appropriate responses and actions. SWEDESD's activities support the further development and practice of education for sustainable development through education, training, learning, research, evaluation, information exchange, networking, partnerships, policy analysis and capacity development. All activities are designed and implemented in close cooperation with national and regional partner organizations in countries in the Global South with which Sweden is engaged in development cooperation, while building on experience and expertise available in Sweden and elsewhere.

Global Action Plan International is an international network at the forefront of Education for Sustainable Development and related programmes for sustainable behaviour change – including 'carbon neutral' households, communities and work places. GAP is a network of organizations working for a common goal - empowering

people to live and work increasingly sustainably. Each member organization is an independent entity with full responsibility for designing and delivering appropriate programs, and for its own funding and financial management. GAP International supports exchange of experience, including workshops and other events; analyses, synthesizes, and acts as a repository for the growing body of knowledge concerning empowerment.

The International Hydrological Programme is a vehicle through which Member States can upgrade their knowledge of the water cycle and thereby increase their capacity to better manage and develop their water resources. It aims at the improvement of the scientific and technological basis for the development of methods for the rational management of water

resources. The programme constitutes a framework for applied research and education in the field of hydrology and water management. It should be regarded as a dynamic concept whose aim is to improve the links between research, application and education and to promote scientific and educational activities. The National Committees have been set up by the respective governments taking into account that the IHP is an intergovernmental programme. Where no National Committee has been established, a Focal Point or National Correspondent in the form of an organization or individual has been identified for channelling information about IHP to and from the country. The composition of the National Committee differs from country to country, but the IHP Council recommends that the composition includes public agencies in hydrology and water resources, private individuals, relevant university faculties and departments, research institutes, consulting agencies, professional and learned societies. The National Committees play a critical role in the implementation of the IHP. These roles differ from country to country depending on the national capabilities and the institutional structure for hydrological studies and water resources management..

Background(and(Methodology((Sustainable Development is an invitation for a change that is not clearly defined. There are no experts, and many forms of sustainable living are yet to be developed or refined. For these reasons we were looking for a process that would go beyond supporting us to learn and would, in its core, promote transformative learning in the service of action. In addition, a common challenge is that to work with SD is to navigate in uncharted waters. The methodology used in this workshop comes from a challenge that Global Action Plan International, as many others organizations, has faced when developing processes and programs related to SD and ESD. We felt that every time we were “reinventing the wheel”. We felt the need to more effectively learn from our own experience, as well as to learn from the experience of others. In addition, a common challenge is that to work with SD is to navigate in uncharted waters. SD is an invitation for a change that is not clearly defined. There are no experts, and many forms of sustainable living are yet to be developed or refined. For these reasons we were looking for a process that would go beyond supporting us to learn and would, in its core, promote transformative learning in the service of action The workshop is developed with close relation to a Pattern Language, and it is part of a larger project intended to lead to the establishment of a Pattern Library. The idea is to identify and develop generic patterns of beliefs and action related to sustainable development and ESD. This work does not only benefit the larger project but has proven to be very beneficial for the individuals participating in it. It helps to identify patterns and challenges with more clarity, as well as to explore ways to move forward, as described in the workshop objectives. The development of patterns is a work in progress, and it is envisioned that these patterns will be accessible for SD practitioners. Several patterns have already been identified and documented.

Objectives ! To create conditions for participants to assess and learn from/for their ESD projects. ! To enable participants to experience new approach, tools and models, for planning, designing, managing, implementing and evaluating ESD

projects. ! To support ESD educators in Malaysia to adopt the new approach, tools and models within their own projects and as a working tool for ESD. ! To promote exchange and cooperation among the participants, while strengthening the existing network.

Workshop(Programme((The first day focused on identifying strengths and challenges. The challenges were further investigated by looking for their main causes, and by starting to develop new insights and solutions. On the second day feedback focused on each case study, and on addressing participants’ issues. The development of “advice to myself” and the formulation of a possible action plan concluded this round. The third day was used for participants to get a deeper understanding of the tools, to ask questions, and to reflect about how to turn the learning points into practice. Details of workshop programmes are attached as annex in this report.

DAY 01

Tuesday, 4 December 2012 M O R N I N G S E S S I O N

01. Case Study Presentation

Analytical session Formulation of personal experiences from working within change projects. Letting the elephant talk. Individual reflection on the things that participants were proud of. Dealing with the issues that empower us to engage with the things we want to change. Identification of personal satisfactions. Presentation of projects and successes to members of the home group. Sharing of personal satisfactions. Participants had bring and presented their own case study in the break up group. The feedback from others members is very variety with active respond. This case study presentation had being good platform for further session at this workshop.

02. Nominal Group Technique, NGT: ‘Dissatisfactions’

The word cloud below represents the synthesis of the dissatisfactions of each group. During the workshop each home group was invited to share their dissatisfactions and synthesize them in topics using the nominal group technique. The results of this exercise are registered in the following pages. Most of the participants feel dissatisfactions when peoples in community not aware much on environmental issues. Other dissatisfaction was emerged the community still not hundred percents involved on program that have been conducted to care the environment.

03. Reflections re method?

Shared reflections on the participants’ experiences from their individual projects. On the one hand it was the ambition to stimulate ”triple loop learning”, On the other hand the workshop sought to enable the participants to use the tools in their own projects after return to their home countries, as a means of project assessment. Some of the good methods and approach are considered to be applied at their home countries.

04. Key empowerment principles

Introduction to the pattern laboratory perspective on increasing the efficiency of change projects. Presentation of the empowerment spiral. An alternative approach to change, revising the knowledge/action model. Strengthening care, joy of experimentation and the orientation of working with the intervention points that the empowerment spiral provides. The first step to reach empowerment in sustainable development is by finding out the issue followed by acting with full of intention and finally it will create care and awareness to environment. That key principles has been derived into circulation mode.

05. Ahas!; l ink dissatisfaction and satisfaction

After searching for deeper significance and ways of overcoming their dissatisfactions, participants reported some of their insights. Participants were invited to add their insight to a list on the wall. Below is a list of the insights registered during the workshop. Acknowledgment of satisfaction and dissatisfaction leads to better improvement. From Ahas! Session the participants realize that every problem have it solutions and it need to think the pro’s and con’s about an issue. Sharing knowledge and experience will lead to a sustainable collaboration between community and stakeholder. The changes of behavior into sustainable development can be started by the smallest element which is self reflection. Knowledge transferred should be made in simple way in order to make community understand an issue easier so that they tend to change their behavior. Critical approach on sustainable lifestyle should be widespread increase in individual awareness, easier for every aspect to have the approach of green practices.

06. Deep Listening

Introduction to the concept of deep listening. The quality of listening. An approach to listening which lets the speaker, the coached perso n, steer how he/she wants to be coached. Deep listening is haracterized through attention, nonjudgmental, empathic, nurturing, the empty vessel. Deep listening is the nurturing of the ambition to support the speaker to formulate and to touch upon the issue s/he wants to explore, letting the flow of telling decide how the speaker wants to be coached. Deep listening is one of the important methods to change behavior into the sustainable development because knowledge itself cannot change human behavior unless they have to understand the issue. By being the dee p listener people can understand and get the message deeply, so the issues and problems can be detected, analyzed and solved wisely.

F igure o3. Deep Listening session


07. Why, Why, Why, How, How, How

Introduction of a mutual coaching method. The intention is to work both with the mind and the emotional engagement of the individual person. After working with the satisfactions in session one, session three encourages participants to first identify their own dissatisfactions and to formulate them as part of a mutual sharing process. The two key questions: Why is this a problem for YOU? If you can change the problem, how would you do that? The purpose was to learn from our own and others reflections. Why, why, why, how, how, how is one of the method to clarify and analyze the root of problems so it easier to solve the problems holistically. By this method participants realize that it is important to analyze problems in detail because sometime one problem has a linkage with another problem.

M O R N I N G S E S S I O N

01. I We It

The day started with three theories/models: “I, We, It”, “Social Diffusion of Innovation” and “The Elephant, The Path and The Rider”. Other theories/models had been presented on the first day, such as, the empowerment spiral. One point emphasized was that these models are meant to help better understand one’s own experience. If they don’t, they can be ignored.

02. Synergy Method and Meeting Experimentation with the Synergy method. Participants use this method in groups in order to create a collective agenda for a meeting. The method allows each participant to raise topics that are important to them and to negotiate the agenda and minutes that are available with the group members. The method was used in order to discuss what the participants want to do differently once they are back and continue working with their projects. Through the Synergy me thod and meetings concept, participant realizes the importance to priorities the issues and using time efficiently. They also are willing to practice this concept when they back to their home country.

01. How To Apply The Methods as Tools for Reviewing a Single Project

Outline of a project workshop. Preparations; NOT evaluation but review or assessment. Instead of ‘when we get home’: clarify opportunities Participants experimented with known and new methods in order to apply them as means for project assessment. Brainstorming, NGT, prioritization, synergy meetings, giving and receiving feedback, why, why, why, reflection praxis theories – change. Methods that were used: Prioritization, Devil’s advocate, 60-second pitch. Most of the participant responds that some activities such as NGT, deep listening and questioning should be implement as pedagogical approach. Participants willing to accept change and adapt changes well in life, they also willing to improve communication skill so the message of environmental awareness can transfer better to community.

03(Learning(Outcomes(and(Evaluation(of(the(Workshop(

( (


Learning(Outcomes(( The survey that was sent to participants at the end of the workshop was designed to capture the learning outcomes of the workshop by asking the participants to state their dissatisfactions, their new insights, and applicability of the presented tools. Dissatisfactions

One of the learning outcomes of the workshop was a refocusing from external factors towards internal aspects of the project, which also becomes apparent in the dissatisfactions. For example, participants possibly gained new perspectives on the need for mutual reflection as a prerequisite for finding a common strategy/vision. This lack of mutual reflection and absence of a mutually shared vision can further be seen to be linked to the identified lack of shared care and commitment. Many participants identified the need to pay increased attention to shared care and commitment, as important intervention points to be worked with in their project in order to address existing dissatisfactions. The analysis of dissatisfactions shows that in comparison to the dissatisfactions raised during day one of the workshop, participants identified shared care, intention (strategy) and feedback as intervention points, and were to some extent moving their focus from external factors that they have limited control over to a new focus on a lack of cohesion and exchanges within their project which were identified as possible intervention points for pattern laboratory tools. These personal dissatisfactions of the participants will hopefully also allow the organizers, facilitators and participants to compare them at a future point of time with those stated earlier.

Ahas & Insights

One of the key purposes of the learning for change workshop is to learn from personal experience that can produce personal and individual insights which can become important outcomes both for the participants as well as facilitators, since they can provide new insights on how to use the tools and what results experimentation with these tools can bring about. The insights and Ahas! session shows that a commonality exists in regard to the relationship between elephant and rider, heart and brain. The insights suggest that the learning for change workshop tools can be used in many different settings and as a means for working with the elephant (heart) through creating an interpersonal space and a tension between dissatisfaction and hope in order to stimulate behavioral change. This insight can be interpreted to mean that one key element to learning and change is increased awareness by listening to others and oneself. Many of the other insights touch upon areas of application, dealing with the multiple ways and areas in which the different tools of the pattern laboratory can be used.


Feedback At the end of the learning for change workshop, participants are able to share experience and knowledge in order to implement education for sustainable development. The feedbacks from participants are listed as bellows:

! To overcome weaknesses and to improve potential for better society ! Give insight into strategizing change ! Establish environmental governance and policy ! Awareness from stakeholders the importance of engaging the students in the caring activity ! Expand the programme for green laboratory or workshop ! Organize the training programme for green laboratory ! Empowering people ! More seminars and workshop to the coordinator as a reminder for them ! Use social media facebook, youtube, twitters for ROSE ! Increase participation and initiatives ! Documentation or record the changes happen (photo, journal, etc) ! Learn from other mistake !

In regards to the suggested ways of improving the workshop, some of the suggestions that have been made are such as documentation on the theories and methods, which should have been provided prior to the workshop. Suggestions touched also upon the issue that facilitators should spend more time on detailed explanation of the theories and exercises, clarifying their purposes and linkages to broader theory and models behind the workshop. In order to increase the possibilities for exchange of knowledge and experience, participants also suggested that facilitators should complete the teaching materials with some illustrations and pictures. In particular the suggestion was made to use more examples and to show cases or examples where the workshop has been applied; especially successful examples of application of the methodology in different areas working with ESD were called for. In addition, it was suggested to include means of measuring outcomes of change projects and their efficiency.
