Objectives

EU member states want to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 40%, obtain 32% of their energy needs from renewable energy sources and achieve 32.5% energy efficiency by 2030. We wanted to contribute to this goal by ensuring the development of green skills in our students. EU member states want to improve the competencies of their young workforce in order to ensure that EU citizens maintain their competitive edge in the globalizing world and to strengthen their own human resources. We wanted to contribute to this goal by carrying out workshops that include STEM applications in our students and developing their key competencies in Science and Mathematics, digital skills, language proficiency, and collaboration skills.

Background

With this project, we aimed for our students to acquire green skills, realize the causes of climate change and reduce their carbon footprint with the habits they gain in the school environment. We wanted to contribute to the carbon neutrality target with our applications. In addition, with this project, we wanted our students to develop their key competencies in Science and Mathematics by doing and experiencing them with STEM applications. We aimed at improving our students' digital competencies, language skills and social skills.
