Objectives

The aim of the project was to develop attitudes that will lead to caring for the environment. It was also about drawing attention to the imbalance in the environment caused by all kinds of climate changes and incompetent management of natural resources both in Poland and in the partner countries - Turkey and Spain. The project was intended to enrich participants with knowledge about renewable energy sources, show the possibility of recycling many used materials of various types, which was used during the workshops, increase awareness of the importance of rational management of our environment and our sustainable future, as well as the impact of our behavior on our health and internal balance. The aim was also to draw the participants' special attention to green skills and activities in the area of "reduce-reuse-recycle", which resulted in the creation of good habits. Contact with nature and practicing sports were aimed at encouraging young people to spend time outdoors. The aim of the project was also to exchange experiences at each of the established points and to exchange good practices.

Background

The implementation of the project was important for our schools because the subject of the project fits very well into the priorities and fundamental importance at school. Our high school is certified as an eco-school. Activities in the field of pro-ecological programs are very important and used by students. Our Ekosienkiewicz group conducts many projects related to these topics. In an irrational environment, water damage occurs, environmental contamination increases visibly, environmental degradation and its impact on biodiversity. After providing the needs of schools, we assumed that the awareness of young people in this area and the transfer of responsibility to the generation is provided by the individual in building a responsible society. We believe that education is a method of reflection on thinking and social habits. In addition, the implementation of the project created a space for our members in an ecological environment. The exchange of experiences between partner schools and the opportunity to use the acquired knowledge in practice were huge benefits for the youth. Not without cultural connections, working together in international group and knowledge of the language.
