▶Objectives
The main objective of the project was to promote circular behaviour among primary school pupils by equipping teachers with practical, high-quality, and accessible educational tools. We aimed to support schools in embedding sustainability and circular economy principles into everyday teaching through engaging microlearning. Specifically, we wanted to: (1) develop a collection of digital micro-lessons tailored for pupils aged 6–11; (2) design a micro-certification framework to recognise pupils' learning achievements; (3) provide teachers with a comprehensive toolkit and lesson plans to facilitate classroom implementation; and (4) build a sustainable online platform to host and disseminate all outputs. By achieving these goals, the project intended to raise awareness of circular thinking at an early age and support the transition toward greener, more responsible educational practices.
