Contemporary History, Venice History, European policies toward climate change, energy-saving architecture, low carbon

community planning, municipal solid waste management,

etc. They’ve also taken part in many training lectures and site

visits regarding to environment and sustainable development.

The students acquired further understanding about the policy

and technical level in sustainable development of Italy and

other EU countries. Besides, the students travelled to some

EU states and famous cities during the leisure time, enjoying

the beautiful sceneries, foreign customs, and local cultures as

well, which help broadening the horizon and enhancing the

capabilities of independency, learning, and adaptation.

The students all said it’s quite a fruitful experience in VIU

学外国留学生奖学金颁发仪式暨文艺演出”在

一二九大礼堂进行,IESD 2011 级全体学生共同

上演了舞台剧“生命之树”,赢得全场掌声。

“生命之树”以生动的舞台剧的形式,向

大家宣传了环境保护的思想。全剧围绕着一棵苹

果树展开,通过由保护生命之树引发的种种反思

向人们传达了人类只有一个地球的观点,号召每

个人都要保护我们的地球。而这棵苹果树是由

IESD 的学生们利用废旧的 KT 板、海报做成的。

On Dec.16th, 2011 International Student Cultural Festival was

held at 6 p.m. in Tongji University. The students from IESD class

performed a drama called Tree of Life which has won universal

appraises.

Tree of Life advocated the importance of environmental protection

and conveyed the concept of environmental-friendliness to the

audience. The drama started with a poor family protecting their apple

tree, the only source of their livelihood, which were later attacked

by the representatives of big corporations. A group of hippies joined

them on stage; a fighting scene ensued, but was soon resolved by a

peaceful messenger. He provided a reflection on the current situation

and conveyed the concept that we have only one Earth, urging all of

us to protect her.

As students of environmental science background, we made the apple

tree with the used KT board and posters, which made the whole stage

environmental friendly.
