This event – organized in French – is dedicated to HEC Liège staff and doctoral students only

Let’s kick off the academic new year in a convivial atmosphere, while putting meaning into our actions by embarking on The Week adventure together!

After leading a first group in April, the S’LAB is ready to take the Co-Dir through this unifying experience that brings people together around our sustainability objectives.

We propose to embark a second, or even a third team.
Would you like to be part of it?

What is The Week? 

” The Week is a not-for-profit project run by a group of colleagues and friends who, each in their own way, have understood that tackling environmental and climate degradation is likely to become the defining adventure for humanity over the next 10 or 20 years.

Our children will ask us: what did you know and what did you do? Finding our answer to this question is perhaps one of the most important things we are all invited to do. That’s why we created The Week: to open up a space where everyone can explore this question and find their own answers. ” By Hélène Gerin & Frédéric Laloux, The Week.ooo

Practical organization
Activity in French (English option on request)

In groups of max 8 to 10 participants, you will be involved thanks to a “U” shape methodology, through the following journey:
– Session 1: A straightforward approach for dealing with the reality of climate change;
– Session 2: We will understand where we are and how we got here as – this session will activate the notion of hope;
– Session 3: This episode will encourage to get moving with inspiring examples and a large list of possibilities.

All 3 engaging sessions (approx duration, 2 hours) are organized over one week as a whole.
Each session will include an episode, to be followed by a guided discussion to give meaning, sometimes by living and sharing strong emotions, in a safe environment.

Some testimonies:

“Choquée à la 1re séance, confiante à la 2e et en effervescence à la 3e, il s’agit d’un parcours qui ne vous laissera certainement pas indifférent! J’invite les plus vaillants d’entre vous à rejoindre l’expérience The Week 💪”
Sylvia Lehnen, Project Manager HEC Liège Executive Education

« J’ai participé à beaucoup de fresques, d’ateliers … et clairement
The Week se situe au-dessus du lot, en termes d’efficacité et de force d’engagement :

– Efficacité dans la synthèse de la description de la grande crise actuelle (ses racines et conséquences), des pistes porteuses d’espoir et des propositions concrètes d’engagement pour nos différentes sphères d’activités (privée et professionnelle);

– Force par sa formule originale, courageuse, qui donne du temps pour libérer et partager ses émotions, aux trois temps de l’atelier.
Ce sont en effet les émotions qui mettent l’humain en mouvement ! Ces moments de paroles authentiques sont rares et sans aucun doute génèrent, renforcent les liens du groupe. »
Cécile van de Weerdt, Green Office ULiège

 

“On voit toutes sortes de formations autour du développement durable mais celle-ci est très différente dans son approche. Elle touche vraiment un point sensible qui ne laisse personne indifférent. Même si elle m’a bouleversée dans un premier temps, j’ai trouvé les échanges très riches, et malgré tout, in fine porteurs d’espoir. »
