Proje Özeti

The core idea of our ‘Nature-Based Solutions and Innovative S.T.R.E.A.M.S Education, is to directly involve the citizens and communities of our Pan-EU consortium in contributing to climate action and protecting the environment, thereby encouraging them to change their personal behaviour and their mindsets, reducing their carbon and environmental footprint and taking action at an individual and collective level, through the three authentic pathways we have chosen in our application proposal and title;

● Meaningful Citizenship (EU President Von der Leyen, 2019),

● Resilience ( EU Commission 2013) and

● Sustainability (EU Green Deal) ( EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030)

These three pathways will we believe, lead to a more sustainable lifestyle and relationship to the environment and result in positive changes in citizens’ and consumers’ behaviours towards more sustainable patterns that will directly result from our consortium’s focus on addressing the following six challenges. Enabling citizens to act on climate change for sustainable development through education;

● education,

● awareness-raising,

● citizen science,

● observation and monitoring of environmental impacts,

● civic engagement and

● social innovation.

As previously stated, in order to assiduously, thoroughly and exhaustively address this Erasmus+ Call, our consortium has chosen the following title; ‘Nature-Based Solutions and Innovative S.T.R.E.A.M.S Education – Authentic Pathways to Meaningful Citizenship, Resilience and Sustainability in 21 Century Teaching and Learning. Through the medium of NBS-STREAMS education our six objectives are ;

1. to enable and foster the development and implementation of a multidisciplinary European competence framework within the context of lifelong learning that will serve as a reference tool for the EU Member States, the public and private sector, stakeholders, and NGOs to help citizens to become engaged actors in the green transformation of society;

2. to observe, monitor and assess the awareness, knowledge, skills and attitudes of citizens and in particular young people on climate change, sustainable development and environmental protection;

3. to design educational materials and MOOCs, online and offline to explain complex systems, develop and implement specific educational programmes, social innovation programmes, mentoring programmes, school curricula, CPD training, networking activities and exchanges of evolving best practices in the area of citizen science, climate change and NBS- STREAMS education for sustainable development

4. to enhance engagement of the wider community, including with the use of ‘Green and Blue’ digital media, observing and monitoring environmental impacts on the oceans and making the behavioural changes needed for a successful transition to a Green infrastructure in the EU by undertaking consultations, polls, testing and implementation of this framework in schools, universities, vocational and technical training institutions, municipalities, public authorities in cooperation with the NGOs, private sector, teachers, trainers, students, pupils, parents aligned with our consortium, (All Partners of the consortium).

5. to involve the large participation of pupils and students

6. to undertake the broad testing, dissemination and use of the European competence framework at the concrete demonstration sites in our eight EU countries and in innovative activities
