Super Heroes - Local SDG Challenges under an international microscope

Description

<< Background >>A key tool for achieving green transformation in the EU is reaching the widest possible audience of the socio-economic and environmental problems we face, as well as the means to address them. Education in the areas of sustainable and regenerative development and the circular economy is a key priority in the Circular Economy Action Plan, which is a key pillar of the European Green Pact (Green Deal). There is a complete lack of information in the society on these topics. In the media space, materials related to green economic development are very limited. Educational programs in schools anduniversities also lack adequate reflection of these fundamental priorities for the future development of the EU. The systematic integrated approach to the training / retraining of current and future staff needed for the green future of the country remains in the background. The Sustainable Development Goals are not abstract, but they might be perceived as very big, world-wide problems. Youngsters might not always be able to relate to these problems. However, these SDGs can also be translated to more local issues and goals. SUPER HEROES wants to use this step to create more awarenessof what the SDGs are and what youngsters themselves can do to contribute to these goals. First, zooming in on local issues related to the SDGs and then zooming out: by both a) presenting the local challenges to an international audience and b) finding solutions for local challenges from other countries.<< Objectives >>This project has the following objectives: •Increase awareness on environmental and issues in your own region •Increase awareness on environmental and social issues across Europe •Increase the active citizenship among students between 12 and 16 years old •Develop/improve intercultural skills among students between 12 and 16 years old •Increase level of English speaking among students between 12 and 16 years old •Develop innovative learning approach towards challenge identification and problem solving in the field of the SDGs<< Implementation >>During the project we will implement the following activities:- Development and testing/implementation of the SUPER HEROES Methodology - Development of the SUPER HEROES E-book - Development and testing/implementation of the SUPER HEROES Web application - Development of the SUPER HEROES Action Plans- Organisation of the SUPER HEROES International training in Spain- Actively building the SUPER HEROES International network<< Results >>The four main project results are the following: 1.
