▶Objectives
The general objective of this project is to exchange and develop good practices between partner organisations on raising environmental awareness, fight against climate change and organizing outdoor education for students with special educational needs. In this way, our students' knowledge, skills and attitudes on environmental literacy and awareness will improve. In this framework, learner-centered and nature-based learning activities will be created and transferred between partner schools.
▶Activities
Four transnational teacher workshops will be organised to address our needs. In parallel to these workshops; local workshop activities are also planned after each workshop in order to spread the impact of our project within the participating organisations. Experiential outdoor education activities will be organised for our student target group at local level. On the other hand, student-based activities will be organised within the school to strengthen their environmental literacy and awareness
▶Impact
