Our goals were: - to enrich and share experiences on the subject of waste so as to reduce their impact in the different schools and in the life of participants and families and to lower consumerism (with objectives on the middle and long terms till the UN SUSTAINABLE AGENDA 2030) - to show our care for environment and the setting of activities related to sustainability and the re-use of objects , to show students who are used to buy new things, that 2nd-hand objects are as reliable and efficient as new ones. -to exchange with other countries and create or broaden a network of schools sharing the same will to develop of a European consciousness and a sense of European belonging - to work on practical subjects with students with less opportunities (inclusion) and to measure the needs detected in the pupils through the work of different activities created for this purpose. - to develop students’ language skills - to promote Europe and all the possibilities of mobility thanks to Erasmus+
Different reasons made us apply for this project: -Exchanges with European schools on the subject of Waste :The theme of the project is part of the problems Europe and the next generations will have to cope with. They will have to find solutions, change their way of consuming. Young people are aware of this problem and care for environment, they are concerned about the defense of nature. So instead of working by themselves in each country, teachers have found more interesting and easier to get involved into a European project to share experiences, to promote an environmental education and an eco and healthy life style, these objectives being related to the United Nations 2030 Agenda for sustainable Development. -Internationalization of the 3 schools to encourage team work, cooperation, collaboration and networking -Discovery and consciousness of a European culture shared with the educational community, families, friends: comparison of points of view, mindset and teaching methods -Development of new projects, joint activities,friendship : development of an international collaboration and networking -Enrichment of students ‘ knowledge and foreign languages
