In this global effort, the role of
Environmental Education, information, awareness and activation of students,
teachers and the local society will be important. For this purpose the
Environmental Center of Vamos proposes
the creation of an International Environmental Education Network for Climate
Change , with the collaboration of the Vamos Environmental Education Center, environmental
organizations and the voluntary participation of teachers and students from
Primary and Secondary Schools from different countries.
The aims of the creation of an International
Environmental Education Network for Climate Change are:
·
To
give the chance to teachers and students from different countries communicate, exchange
ideas and practices about Climate Change education
·
To
investigate the impacts and the causes of Climate Change
·
To
discuss about the human role in Climate Change
·
To
propose solutions, actions and measures that need to be taken
·
To
act together through Common Days of Action of our Network informing local
societies in many different countries and places.
·
To
organize meetings between the members of our Network and common proposals for
Erasmus+ and other international programs
