Sustainaware project’s aim is to educate the Slovenian and Hungarian youth about climate change and climate mitigation through non-formal approaches.
The goals of the project are to:
The project will promote “climate literacy” among Central European youth and provide educational resources about climate change mitigation. We will adjust the Ecological Footprint Calculator to the Slovenian reality, which will allow young people to compare and tackle their resource demands and to transform unsustainable consumption patterns into sustainable ones. Furthermore, the implementing organizations will conduct educational events on climate change: eight webinars, a summer school on climate change, and the Sustainability and Youth Climate Summit. Each format will allow participants and relevant stakeholders from Central Europe to present and discuss project results. The webinars will be recorded and published online in order to make this educational resource more widely available. Finally, the project will address the youth work community, developing a new competence model on climate mitigation and sustainability, which will be tested and implemented by youth NGOs in Hungary and Slovenia. Acknowledging the importance of non-formal education and communications systems, the projects will primarily use social media to disseminate the knowledge.
The Ecological Footprint measures how much nature we have and how much nature we use. The footprint indicator adds up all the productive areas for which a population, a person, or a product competes. It measures the ecological assets that a given population or product requires to produce the natural resources it consumes and to absorb its waste, especially carbon emissions. It is measured in global hectares (gha).
