O e-Institute do Banco Mundial foi lançado como uma sala de aula virtual de aprendizagem para fornecer às comunidades, o acesso conveniente, fácil e confiável ao conhecimento. São oferecidos mais de 45 cursos de e-Learning (EAD) voltados para a resolução de problemas atuais, complexos em áreas prioritárias como os desastres, a governança, a saúde, as cidades, as alterações climáticas, e as parcerias público-privadas.
Os alunos têm acesso a podcasts gratuitos mensais e webinars, histórias de sucesso de vídeo, ferramentas de multimídia e outros recursos. Os cursos são gratuitos e em inglês. O conteúdo é extenso e específico e as atividades avaliativas e fóruns demandam tempo e dedicação.
Eu estou terminando agora o curso Introduction to Disaster Risk Management e iniciando o Sustainable Land Use Planning. O curso que acabei de terminar foi de alto nível e contou com a participação de mais de 1000 pessoas de todo o mundo. Além do conteúdo de altíssima qualidade, o curso conta com muitos exemplos práticos e sugestões dos facilitadores e dos próprios alunos.
Vejam abaixo os cursos que achei mais voltados para a área ambiental e no final da postagem o link para a lista completa de cursos. Aproveitem esta oportunidade e divulguem a iniciativa.
AGENDA COMPLETA DE CURSOS
CLIMATE-SMART AGRICULTURE - TOWARDS LANDSCAPE APPROACH
Sustainable Agricultural Land Management Projects: Soil Carbon Monitoring
March 24, 2014 - April 11, 2014
In the agriculture sector, until recently, much attention has been given to the adaptation of climate change, little to its climate change mitigation or carbon sequestration potentials.

In the agriculture sector, until recently, much attention has been given to the adaptation of climate change, little to its climate change mitigation or carbon sequestration potentials.
This course provides participants with a functional and integrated understanding of the dynamics of urban land use and demonstrates how to effectively utilize policies and planning instruments to manage urban growth and achieve sustainable, equitable and efficient development outcomes.
LOW CARBON, RESILIENT DEVELOPMENT
Emissions Trading Systems: Using Markets to Promote Low Emissions Development
April 14, 2014 - May 02, 2014
Emissions Trading Systems (ETS) are a key economic instrument for ratcheting down greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and spurring innovation and investment in low-carbon energy technologies. ETS, also called cap-and-trade schemes, are conceptually simple but practically complex. This course will guide you through the theory, practice, and available global experience important to the design, implementation, and governance of a well-functioning Emissions Trading System.

Safe and Resilient Cities
April 23, 2014 - May 21, 2014
The course will expose city officials and practitioners to cutting edge tools on vulnerability assessment, policy and programs stock tacking and gaps analysis, and finance access. The discussion will also focus on decision making under uncertainty to identifying options and establishing priorities to make the city more resilient to climate change impacts and natural disasters.
LOW CARBON, RESILIENT DEVELOPMENT
ESSENTIALS OF CLIMATE CHANGE
Energy Sector Strategies to Support Green Growth
May 05, 2014 - May 25, 2014
This course covers essential aspects of Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Policies and how they can contribute to Green Growth Strategies.
LOW CARBON, RESILIENT DEVELOPMENT
Policy Instruments for Low Emissions Development: From Design to Implementation
June 02, 2014 - June 20, 2014
Transitioning to a lower emissions development path is becoming increasingly important as climate change poses major challenges to development.This course is designed to help policymakers to apply the various policy instruments available to reduce GHG emissions while also achieving economic development goals. In this course, you will learn how to plan, design and implement voluntary and information-based, regulatory and market-based instruments that will help your country to transition towards a low emissions development path.

LOW CARBON, RESILIENT DEVELOPMENT
Low Carbon Development: Planning & Modelling
April 29, 2014 - May 16, 2014
This course has four modules - (i) Overview for Policymakers; (ii) Power; (iii) Household; (iv) Transport - which introduce you to climate change mitigation, explore the concepts surrounding low carbon development planning on an economy-wide basis and take a detailed look at what this means in the power and transport sectors and for household electricity use.
