The SSP-IQA-"Sustainable, Secure, and framework for Air Quality" project proposes to design, implement and validate a low-cost IT infrastructure with the necessary functionalities for collecting, transmitting, processing and analyzing data relating to outdoor and indoor air quality, particularly in public buildings such as schools/universities or hospitals. The infrastructure will make it possible to link up different platforms existing locally at the consortium partners, with the specification and implementation of efficient solutions at different levels (Fog and Cloud) and integrating security aspects at the level of data collection and transmission. The aim is to enable efficient, scalable handling of large volumes of data on air quality in general, and indoor air quality in particular. Estimating individual exposure inside buildings is a major challenge, due to the variability of temporal and spatial exposure, linked to individual behavior (e.g. studying in classrooms or eating in cafeterias), but also to the dynamics of the surrounding environment, which can also influence indoor air quality (e.g. meteorological conditions, nearby polluting factories, car traffic in the vicinity, occupational context). In this way, the specific environmental context of each consortium partner will enable rich and varied data to be collected, taking into account the multi-dimensional nature in time and space of the data needed in studies of air quality in internal and external environments. Information sharing (open data) is an important aspect of our project. In the medium and long term, the infrastructure can be used to share the data collected and enrich the data concerning air pollution. The creation of structured data, under controlled conditions (taking into account the context) and with real data, is one of the current gaps in the study of air pollution, particularly inside buildings. An important point is that this proposal also addresses international collaboration, in particular with Latin America (Mexico) and Africa (Cameroon), two countries for which the issue of air quality and its influence on human health is a priority area of research. Also, building on each partner's IoT platform the idea is to integrate our contributions and move towards a multi-platform vision for the constitution of a large volume of rich, structured data. Such an infrastructure will not just collect multi-dimensional data in time and space on the qualitý of the air, but also data on the state of computing, storage and transmission infrastructure resources and their energy costs. All to ensure intelligent operation covering sustainable development objectives specific to partners in Europe, America and Africa.

</script>The reason of the project is the identified need to restore the place of Food Science Education and related subjects in the culture of the young people, in order of their personal development and wellbeing. The high incidence of diet-related diseases and also food borne diseases is a major challenge nowadays, being obvious that the problem is connected to the early childhood education. In this context the project proposes activities focused first of all on the enhancing of the relevance of the learning, taking into account that the healthy and sustainable habits acquired by pupils through awareness and deeply understanding of food science will contribute on long term to the quality of life and society welfare. Another objective refers to enhancing of the quality of learning on the strength of the designed materials, of the teaching and learning methods chosen in order to replace memorizing with meaningful experiments and also of the best practices gathered by the partnership and shared to teachers and their students. Inseparable by the previous mentioned above, enhancing the key-competences of pupils in pre-primary, primary and secondary education, including basic and digital skills, represents an important objective of the project.Reinforced links between education and the world of work is a target objective that will be reached with the help of the stakeholders involved in the project activities. Not at last, carrying out different activities in the frame of the partnership, a structured cross-border cooperation will be promoted, which will contribute to the project sustainability.The partnership consists from six partners from six different countries of Europe, four from academic area, one school and also a chain of schools.The project activities are divided in Management and Implementation Activities, Intellectual Outputs and Multiplier Events. In summary, the Management and Implementation Activities, centered on management, coordination, administration and monitoring, will gives confidence that the project is maintained in the line of the progress according to the project work-plan. The Intellectual Outputs are designed so that to get tangible results that can be capitalized in teaching and learning, disseminated and exploited. Critical analysis of curricula related to nutrition, health and food safety, Designing, undertaking the training process and classroom implementation, Designing and implementing of the Good Practices Guidelines, Impact Analysis represent the core of various activities that will be undertaken by partners. The Multiplier Events consist in two workshops. One of them is designed in order to promote widely to general public the innovative food products obtained in the frame of the project and also to contribute to the raising of the importance of education in food science and related subjects. Another workshop is dedicated to dissemination, sharing the final outcomes being not a final point but rather a beginning of the future exploitation.The main outputs of the project are the critical analysis of curricula (at the national level of each partner, from pre-primary to secondary level) and the numbers of teachers and children trained in the area of nutrition and food safety. The training materials, the virtual laboratories (digital games and intelligent digital stories), the portfolios for classroom implementation, the project web page will be an inseparable part of the training process.The involvement of the higher education students and stakeholders from food industry in the project activities will contribute to starting of the acquisition of entrepreneurship skills by pupils, through manufacturing of innovative food products.Good Practice Guidelines for School Education, Nutrition Guidelines for Children and Food Safety Guidelines for Children will be provided as valuable results of the project, taking into account the practical feature of their implementation in daily activities of teachers, students and all the interested parties.Referring to the methodology to be used, the project will promote pedagogical key strategies and will encourage the teachers’ networks development at national and European level, with the aim to ensure the project sustainability. The improvement of genuine teaching will be made by training successful trainers, able to apply different methods in order to strengthen the students’ willingness to learn and to become responsible for their own professional progress. The project impact will occur both during the life of the project and beyond, because the teachers from the target groups will be able to optimize their work in diversity, the students will enhance the basic life-skills inside the network nutrition-health-food safety, developing their personality and thinking to their future employment, while the stakeholders involvement will help young people and adults to integrate better in the diversity of the European science and culture.
