Active for Climate

Description

"The ""Fridays for Future"" movement has become a worldwide phenomenon in the past months showing the growing concern of young people about the Future of our planet. Scientists and politicians support this movement. But school strike is not the only possible reaction, young people need to be active and certainly are willing to do so.Our project ""Active for Climate"" is a first attempt to show students what can be done at a personal level and how change can be made possible: Together with students from three European countries (Croatia, Italy and Spain), they discover the manifold challenges to stop global warming.Some of the responses can find common answers in every country, such as reducing energy and water consumption by using smart home solutions. Some of them depend on the specific climate and the geographical situation in a country, such as wind energy, PV or geo-thermal ressources. Students learn through this project how a problem we all share in Europe can have different solutions, but a common target. And they also learn that consumer habits need to change in order to permit a more sustainable agriculture to exist. Slow food can be one of the answers.In a global world, cooperation with people from other countries, having their own mentality and their way of looking at things, is an absolute necessity which needs to be acquired and trained. Through common experiences like roll plays and flash mobs and working all together on a technical device, they will not only see a tangible result of their efforts, this project will enable students to better accept diversity in thinking and doing and contribute to a better mutual understanding.Another target of this project is to show young people new job opportunities in a fast changing labour market where a large number of traditional jobs will disappear, p.ex. in the automotive industry or the retail business, and will be replaced by E-commerce, robots and AI. Working for the climate together with our European partners can open new job perspectives for our students and help them finding their way in the labour market of the future."
