Moja Island
A discussion based activity to reinforce students' understanding of renewable energy sources
Moja Island is a discussion based 1-2 hour activity which will reinforce students' understanding of renewable energy sources.
Students consider the variety of different energy options available to communities living on Moja Island and select the most appropriate technology. Renewable energy fact cards, a map of the island, and information on the different communities and their needs are all resources designed to help them.
One of our most popular activities.
To help students explore the concept of technology justice we have a range of short group activities.
