Change is often beyond our control, but we can control how we respond to change.

If you recognise what is changing and likely to change ahead of time, you are better prepared to deal with change.

Climatic changes are making the weather more volatile. Many places are experiencing periods of hotter, colder, drier or wetter weather than expected. Recognising this should be informing decisions made about what plants we grow and how we cultivate them.

Wars, pandemics and natural disasters can cause disruptions to how we live and work; and that in turn also impacts on how horticulture should be managed.

This course helps you better appreciate change, and have better knowledge and tools to deal with change faster and better.
