About this programme
Environmental issues are a growing part of everyday business conversation, from supply chains to sustainability reports. This intermediate corporate English course uses the fight to save Borneo's rainforests as its context: you will read about deforestation, conservation technology and community-led change, watch a video about a real conservation project, and master the passive voice that dominates news and reporting English. By the end, you will be able to describe processes, report events and discuss environmental responsibility in meetings with confidence.
