The primary objectives of the project were to achieve the following: -Explore and systematize relevant theories, techniques, and best practices in sustainable building to address environmental issues and climate change. This was the top priority of the project, aiming to enhance the availability of high-quality learning opportunities for adults in the consortium's field of knowledge and expertise. -Exchange best practices and facilitate mutual learning among partners, leveraging their experiences to enhance the overall project outcomes. -Build a shared consensus on the reference framework to guide the subsequent phases of the project, particularly in the development of the Build Green Curriculum (IO2). -Promote low-cost sustainable building as a means to actively involve a broader audience in sustainability-oriented solutions. The focus was on addressing climate change within the realm of adult education, evaluating its effectiveness, and highlighting its relevance in establishing a low-carbon, circular economy.
We applied for this project to address the urgent need for educational methodologies that effectively confront environmental challenges, particularly climate change. Our goal aligns with the EU's Covid-19 recovery plan and the European Green Deal, aiming to contribute meaningfully to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 and fostering a clean, circular economy. Recognizing the gravity of climate change, we sought to tackle resource use, enhance building energy efficiency, and align with the principles outlined in the EU's overarching vision. By focusing on innovative building practices, our project aimed to support the EU's commitment to environmental sustainability, inclusivity, and resilience, responding to the pressing demands of our time.
