Very informative and detailed. Prof. Sachs covers all aspects of sustainable development in detail. Though the course was designed in 2013 hence does not cover the latest development to SDGs to date.

This course was perfect for those wanting to explore the world of development, broad enough to include all interlinked themes, with sufficient reading materials to spark one's specializing interests.

Terminar este curso me abrió la mente hacia los problemas que engloba al mundo, la pobreza, el cambio climático, etc. Es un problema que alcanza a todos y tenemos que luchar contra ello unidos como uno solo

Prof speaks slowly, i have to accelerate the speed of videos, but then i didint get some parts of the subject. Also i think that it must be shown how the numbers of the displayed statics were obteined

loved it! Jeffery Sachs once came to our university to have a speech (Peking University) and I wanted to read his book when i found out about this course. This course was better than hoped for!

Some of the resources referenced in the quizzes are out of date. In some cases I could find the answers, but it was harder when the question involved a specific quantity, like a percentage.

Great Course for anyone interested in sustainability and ESG understanding. Need next course on it post Covid as some SDG's and ESG needs a change in the way we looked at it 10 years back.

Excellent programme. Basic introduction of concepts like Gross Domestic Product and Purchasing Power Parity, presented in a relaxed way along with video footage.
Definitely worth your time.
