Project Summary

The EU is committed to taking action to limit global warming to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels, in line with the 2015 Paris Agreement. In November 2018, the Commission adopted the ‘clean planet for all’ strategy, aiming for a prosperous, modern, competitive and climate-neutral economy by 2050. Education is an essential element of the global response to climate change.

Public opinion, especially for young people, is acutely aware of global climate change issues. Despite this, there is less action to reduce carbon footprint and thus protect cultural heritage area. The students in the partner schools need education on the impact of climate change on cultural heritage and on the importance of cultural heritage as a climate change indicator.To achieve these, the general aim of the project is to build student awareness on the cultural heritage of their city, the preservation of cultural heritage and a critical awareness of climate change problems related.

The general aim of the project is to build student awareness on the cultural heritage of their city, the preservation of cultural heritage and a critical awareness of climate change problems related to them. Also aims;
