Microlearning Modules
Looking to make your farm, classroom, or advisory work more sustainable?
These short, practical microlearning modules, developed through the EU-funded ClieNFarms project, offer easy-to-understand, science-backed guidance created by experts from 14 EU countries. Whether you’re a farmer exploring new techniques, an educator teaching sustainability, an advisor supporting clients, or simply someone interested in climate-smart agriculture, these resources are designed for you.
The modules are grouped by farming system and sustainability theme, making it simple to find the topics most relevant to your needs.
All content is adaptable to local contexts, available in multiple languages, and supported by one shared discussion forum and a feedback form for everyone to exchange ideas across Europe.
All modules can be accessed for free with no registration required via guest login on Moodle following the instructions below:
