    Green in Everyday Life (GIEL) (http://www.green4life.world/home.html) is a project funded by EU Programme for Education, Training, Youth and Sport ERASMUS+ to promote sustainable behaviours between different target groups.The project methodology comes from a Spanish national program called Green Homes (GH) (http://www.magrama.gob.es/es/ceneam/programas-de-educacion-ambiental/hogares-verdes/). GH is an educational programme for families that are concerned about the environmental and social impact of their decisions and daily habits. GIEL is the first international experience of GH, working with different target groups in various countries in Europe, Middle East and North Africa. In each partner country, each partner entity has adapted the methodology of GH to the reality of their territory and the profile of their target group.The objectives of the project are promoting a moderate use of resources by encouraging individual responsibility; raising awareness on environmental issues related to the use of energy, water, waste and mobility; improving key skills and offer new educational tools for educators and partner organizations and creating a European level space of lifelong learning for environmental education.Seven partners have participated in this project:•Asociación Columbares, in charged of coordinating the project and implementing the activities with immigrant families.•Centro Nacional de Educación Ambiental (CENEAM), in charged of advising all project partners in the implementation of GH in their countries, given their extensive experience as coordinator of the Spanish network entity.•Consorzio ABN, working with primary schools.•Insider Access, working with families, prisoners and ex-prisoners.•Global Playground Stockholm, working with young families.•Bassin Guir Association for Development and Protection of the Environment, working with primary schools and families in rural communities.•East & West Center for Human Resources Development, working with families and youngsters.The main activities of the project included:1. Initial training course, in which the partners learned how to implement GH in their countries. They received the Green Homes Starters Kit (http://www.green4life.world/training.html), a complete guide to run the GH, including background information, training materials, games, quizes and GH audit materials.2. Development of awareness rising activities by each partner in their home countries with different target groups, such as environmental audits with delivery of a domestic savings kits, educational workshops and analysis of the savings of the participants.3. Development of Green4life Manual (http://www.green4life.world/training.html), a complete guide to running the GH, including information about the methodology of implementation, educational materials, advices and the experiences of one year working from each partner, with the adaptations for different target groups and different contexts. It also contains four examples on educational activities of each partner, considered by the team as the best practices developed in every country.4. Creation of the Green4life Network (http://www.green4life.world/network.html), a virtual space of green ‘thinkers’ that will combine international exchange of experiences, transfer of methodologies, educational materials and knowledge transfer in GIEL related areas, which continues to function after the project is completed.5. Dissemination activities: The most important are:a) Hogares Verdes-Green4life conference. A seminar in which,-for the first time, the participants of the GIEL project met the members of the Spanish Green Homes network and presented them the results of the project in each country and pose new challenges internationally.b) Changing lives-sustainable futures conference, in which the value of GIEL project to engage disadvantaged groups was analyzed and discussed.c) Dissemination videos, in which the activities, results and origin of GIEL project is explained.It is estimated that the project activities have reached around 1.500 people. Between the main results, we can delight the 254 immigrants who have participated in Columbares’ activities; the reduction of water consumption in an Italian school by 10 %; the influence that the project have had in Morocco in improving the local environmental politics; the reduction at about 20 % in electricity and 35 % in water in Jordan, as well as the 20 young people trained to be environmental auditors in this country; the way the project promoted the confidence of prisoners in England and the way it was an inspiration for promoting an eco-enterprise or the improving in recycling and using of bikes in Sweden.The main results, in terms of longer-term benefits, include the Green4life Manual and the Green4life network (explained before).
