Objectives

We established an indicator and a target to measure each objective: O1. Improving the ecological behavior at partnership level of communities in different geographical areas. Indicator1.The carbon footprint of each beneficiary and each school; Target1.To decrease by 10% for each beneficiary and school until the end of the project. We measure through the same application https://earthgenwa.org/learning-resources/carbon-calculator. O2.Development of future-oriented skills and competences, in the field of digital technologies, green jobs. I2.The use of digital applications/platforms by the beneficiaries of the project; T2.To increase with 3 applications. We measure through application/platform specific monitoring sections. O3.Developing and implementation of outward mindset I3.The percentage of children who are victims of bullying from the school communities in the project T3.To decrease by 10%. We measure by applying questionnaires at the beginning and at the end of the project O4.The development of English language skills, intercultural identity and self-confidence I4.The percentage of students who have improved their skills T4.To increase by 10%. We measure by applying questionnaires at the beginning and at the end of the project

Background

Before joining the project CALL, all six partner schools identified their education needs through surveys, SWOT analysis, carbon footprint calculator (we came to the conclusion that if everyone lived like our pupils in average, we will need almost two Earths and as a solution for greenwashing, offset personal carbon footprint each of us would have to plant each year around 100 trees). All partners have identified the following needs at the local, regional, national and European level, which demonstrate the existence of a global problem. 1. Insufficient information among students regarding the climate crisis and the need for sustainable development 2. The existence of unjustified consumption of resources by young people (energy, raw materials) 3. The existence of a high level of environmental pollution (chemical, physical and biological processes affecting flora,fauna, water, air and soil) 4. The need for students to improve their real skills in the digital field (Romania is placed on first place at digital illiteracy), of communication in English so that they can meet the requirements of the open intercultural society. 5.Insufficient use of formal and non-formal methods to support students from vulnerable groups in partner schools
