Background

The project addresses several crucial needs, both at an individual and collective level: Promote environmental awareness: fundamental to sensitize adults of all ages on the importance of protecting the environment and adopting responsible behaviors towards nature, contributing to the sustainability of the planet. Tackle the lack of green skills: many adults do not have the knowledge and skills needed to apply green practices in their daily lives. This project was an opportunity to develop skills related to environmental sustainability by practicing languages. Promote social inclusion through practical and multilingual activities, the aim was to involve a wide range of participants, including disadvantaged groups, to make them agents of change and make them feel included in the change. Fill educational gaps by integrating outdoor learning methods with the use of digital technologies for learning green and multilingual skills outdoors, to improve the ecological, linguistic and digital skills of the participants, 80% students, 20% teachers who have major gaps. To grow in local and international networks.
