Project summary:
The project enhances competencies in two key areas that are one of the biggest challenges in Slovenia, the EU and globally: climate change and the digital transition. The development of an entirely new methodology and a didactic digital tool for the experiential teaching of this issue and the literacy of primary school teachers and students in the direction of the goals of the digital and green transition, led by decarbonisation, and their additional training with competences for life, such as taking own initiative, responsibility for one’s actions, concern for the common good. A successfully implemented project will significantly reduce the city’s carbon footprint, create new knowledge and habits in various age groups in the field of environmental awareness and significantly impact the lives of future generations.
