Aim of the project
This multidisciplinary and cross-curricular project entitled ’A Path to Sustainability’, has appeared from the definite intention to change the attitude towards the environment of each partner’s pupils and school community.
Wisdom is built gradually through experience. Thus, by means of this project we want to educate/to make the school community aware of a practical attitude that could make a difference for our planet, stimulating the development of the initiative, opening our minds towards change, preparing all those involved to reflect and become environmentally aware. Our means? Environmental education!
