Are you a school that wants to take part in the project?
The aim is to train the citizens of tomorrow, providing them with all the tools they need to adopt responsible behaviour and imagine taking up employment in areas related to the ecological transition in the future.
The methodological approach is multidimensional and innovative. The more traditional training method, with teaching materials to be studied and researched, is complemented by ‘smarter’ content, such as videos made by science entertainers.
Teachers can assess the skills acquired through specific questionnaires, thanks to which pupils can continue the course, module by module.
After each annual course, the students will be invited to participate in the contest “Ideas for the Future” to become initiators of innovative ideas that aim to improve everyday life, for themselves and their community. The students’ proposals are evaluated by a panel of judges and the three best ideas receive awards at a dedicated award ceremony.
