Περιγραφη:

 

The Micro Forest Schools project is developing a new teaching curriculum and eLearning course to promote biodiversity and climate action in primary schools. The project is coordinated by Vejle Municipality in Denmark and involves partners from across Europe.

 

The project aims to support the EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030 and the Education for Climate Action. It will do this by developing a new teaching curriculum and eLearning course that combines biodiversity action and community involvement in primary schools, through the establishment and co-ceation of micro forests.
