Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Participants will learn to design and facilitate impactful learning formats and knowledge-sharing sessions. They will develop comprehensive concepts for workshops and webinars to advance energy transition and industrial decarbonisation.
Applications must be submitted by groups of 2-3 participants from think tanks, civil society organisations, or research institutes in ODA recipient countries. Participants should possess technical knowledge of energy transition or climate change topics.
The global energy transition and industry decarbonisation require more than just technological solutions - they demand strong actors who can effectively share knowledge, align strategies, and drive collective action. Civil society organisations, research institutions, and think tanks are at the forefront of these transformations, providing science-based evidence, shaping policy solutions, and fostering inclusive dialogues on topics such as renewable energy, industrial decarbonisation, and just transitions. However, the success of these efforts depends not only on the quality of the content but also on how effectively it is shared and translated in action.
This training builds on participant's technical expertise by strengthening their ability to design and facilitate impactful learning and knowledge-sharing formats. Through interactive facilitation methods, participants learn to create engaging learning environments that respond to learners' needs, foster meaningful exchange and inspire action from the very first session. In doing so, they are equipped to design and deliver learning experiences that enables others to reflect critically, apply new knowledge, develop context-specific solutions, and take action to advance energy transition and/or industry decarbonisation.
After completing the training, participants will be able to enhance any learning or knowledge sharing within their networks by using learning-focused tools and methods to guarantee the success of their workshops, trainings or other learning formats.
Specifically, participants will be able to:
Active learning, or ‘learning-by-doing’ is one of the core principles of Agora's trainings.
The training programme is designed to be a mixture between theoretical input, hands-on exercises, group work and inclusive discussions that encourage participants to identify best practices from their own work context. We strive to create a healthy and safe, informal learning environment, where collaboration is encouraged and where mistakes are celebrated as part of the learning process. Participants will leave the training with the foundations for developing training and learning formats as well as a basic structure for their own learning format.
Applications must be submitted by groups of 2-3 participants from the same organisation intending to participate jointly.
The programme is open to think tanks, civil society organisations, and research institutes based in ODA recipient countries.
The programme is designed to strengthen the training and knowledge sharing capacities of institutions who are planning or interested in delivering trainings opportunities to their local civil society or allied constituency groups. Such trainings should focus on topics related to the energy transition or climate change.
Participants are expected to have some technical knowledge of the knowledge they plan on sharing to their target audiences.
Experience in hosting or delivering trainings is not a prerequisite.
The open forum for foreign policy
Who we are: Agora is the UK’s open forum for foreign policy. We are a grassroots, open-source, foreign policy think tank. We are also part of a global network of open think tanks, with sister organisations in Switzerland, Germany, and France. Our leadership team and our membership come from a diverse range of professional, academic, and personal backgrounds. What brings us together is a desire to make a meaningful contribution to discussions in the world of international relations. “We” could include you. We are always seeking new members and welcome collaboration with like-minded organisations. What we do: Agora provides a platform for people who are knowledgeable and passionate about international affairs. Our aim is to create and grow a community that combines the intellectual rigour of academia with the professional standards of a think tank. We support our members in developing ideas and empower them to influence foreign policy outside of the conventional channels. We work to produce informed, creative, and pragmatic foreign policy proposals. Through our blogs, briefings, policy papers, and events we allow a wide range of voices to participate in the key debates on the future of international relations. What we believe: Agora is independent and politically neutral. Nevertheless we are committed to the principles of democracy, human rights, rule of law, internationalism, and multilateralism. We hope to strengthen these values through our work. We believe that engaging a more diverse range of people in foreign policy discussions is the best way to improve public understanding of international affairs and develop innovative proposals that help solve the global challenges of the 21st Century and achieve a more stable, fair, and prosperous world.
