Objectives

This project aimed to implement a systematic approach to environmental education addressing the specific needs, knowledge, and skills that educated students/learners can offer in mitigating and adapting to climate change and promoting a larger process of social learning for sustainable development. Throughout the project processes, it was clear that each partner of the organization managed to develop action-based plans that consist of development plans, training programs, and strategies by benefiting from European experience and values as a result of transnational partnerships.

Background

One way to equip students to deal with environmental concerns is through more effective environmental education. As there are major shortcomings in environmental education policy in the learning institutions and centers, we need to implement a systematic approach to environmental education. We are aiming to bring together students/learners, adult mentors (educators/teachers), and experts in environmental education non-profit organizations from three European countries (Turkey, Greece, and Spain) to prepare an environmental education plan.
