EUFURESMy Europe, my Future, my Responsibility – Energy and SustainabilityThe aim of the project is the formation of active, motivated citizens of Europe being sensitized for their own future and having the awareness of an environmental responsibility. “Be part of the big swarm called Europe bringing the change by acting united as a community.” (Leave a better planet – leave a better future)My Europe: All the students should be active Europeans knowing that only together a community can make a change. Everyone has to contribute a part so that lots of small changes lead to one big change. Nobody has the power to do it alone; it is only possible with the help of all.My future: The first steps into Europe’s future and towards a healthy environment need to start now. The students should realize that they have their future in their hands and that it is their mission to make others aware to act sustainable and environmentally responsible for the sake of their own and Europe’s future. My responsibility: It is the students’ task to create a change, to make a start and to motivate others. With their knowledge they should be a role-model within their community. Their thoughts should be: If I don’t start the change and be responsible for my own future, nobody else will. Nobody has the right to destroy my future.The learning circle: The advantage in knowledge and the first booster for the students will be reached by the learning circle developed during the project. The schools of the five countries will develop a particular station for the learning circle concerning the topics energy and sustainability, dealing with the aspects of electricity, water, alternative forms of energy, food and nutrition, waste prevention, waste disposal and recycling.This circle then should be part of the constant curriculum of every partner school. It will be repeated every school-year in a particular form or age-group. Thus the swarm of people being aware can be enhanced on and on.
EUFURESMy Europe, my Future, my Responsibility – Energy and Sustainability The aim of the project was to turn pupils into active, motivated citizens of Europe and to sensitize them to the fact that everyone can make a significant contribution to the own future and living conditions. By working together on the learning circles created during the project, the awareness of an ecological responsibility can be strengthened. Students can recognize that as a single individual one cannot do much, but many like-minded people have the power to make changes and influence the future. “Be part of the big swarm called Europe bringing the change by acting united as a community.” (Leave a better planet – leave a better future) My Europe: All the students should be active Europeans knowing that only together a community can make a change.

The schools of the five countries have developed learning circles concerning the topics energy and sustainability, dealing with the aspects of electricity, water, alternative energy, food and nutrition, waste prevention, waste management and recycling. In addition to the learning circles in PDF format, widgets have been created that can be edited on a computer or tablet. The learning circles should be part of the permanent curriculum of each partner school after completion of the project. Through the publication on the project page www.eufures.eu the learning circles are also generally available. The aim is to reach as many students as possible and through them, as multipliers, to reach people around them in order to increase the swarm of people who are aware of their responsibility for Europe and the entire earth.
