Objectives

We wanted to raise awareness and educate about the SDGs by offering detailed sheets of each SDG, available to a wide audience, and to support community actors, particularly teachers, who are closest to young citizens. The ultimate goal is not only to change mentalities but to generate personal and collective commitment to sustainable development. It was therefore necessary to provide the necessary resources by providing tools such as educational sessions and teacher training so that they were equipped, trained and motivated. However, the impact is not only academic. In the near future, it is a way to stimulate innovation, foster collaboration and project ourselves - for the students - into a job and actions that support these sustainable orientations, to make people aware that the breaking point is near and that we must act collectively. It is not only about achieving these SDGs, but about preserving sustainable conditions for present and future generations. Young people have greater cognitive flexibility and a critical eye in construction. All the partners have understood this.

Background

Leading a project around the SDGs and offering a learning site makes it possible to raise awareness and educate a wide audience on these crucial issues. It also promotes the commitment of individuals and communities to act for sustainable development. A learning site can offer resources, training, and tools to help people understand the SDGs and implement concrete actions in their daily lives or within their organization. By making this information accessible, the project helps create a positive impact and encourage a culture of sustainability. Students represent the future generation, and they are aware of sustainable development issues from an early age can encourage them to adopt responsible and sustainable behaviours. By integrating the SDGs into their education, they are given the tools to understand and act on global challenges. Teachers play a key role in the transmission of knowledge and values. By involving them in SDG-related projects, they are enabled to become agents of change within their classrooms and communities. In this way, they can inspire and motivate students to get involved.
