Workshops are really helpful for people who has less or not enough knowledge about something. It can be a source of awareness at the same time knowledge on what action to do for climate and energy. The good thing that it was sponsored by Alliance it shows that they believe that workshops can be an effective tool for sustainable development. I hope our world can become better with all this action for a Development Agenda. I believe that this action if for the betterment of our world so lets continue on improving what we have.
