Project Summary

« No Dump, No Dumb» is a collaboration project based on the environment at a local, national and European level. The partners are invited to think and to act on their environment at school, in their everyday living space and in Europe. How to handle at every level in order to produce less waste and to reduce its impact by recycling. What’s the schools’ strategy to limit their environmental footprint? What policies about ecology do the different countries implement at a local or national scale? How does Europe handle politically to solve the problem concerning waste?

“No Dump, No Dumb” is a project based on three points: on the one hand, the aim is to exchange, to debate among partners in order to gather innovate and efficient ideas set up in the different countries. This would lead to create a sitography, a good-practice handbook, a digital guide for responsible citizens. On the other hand it consists in setting up real actions lead by our schools: cleaning actions on local sites, organizing advertising campaigns, visiting innovative recycling sites, crating artistic works thanks to recycling materials. Finally this project will help the students to extend their knowledge on how Europe works globally and what current actions about environment are put in place.

“No Dump, No Dumb” is a project developing digital skills because many applications will be used to communicate, to exchange ideas or to transmit the actions results set up in the different schools. The e-Twinning platform, the social medias, the project or the partner schools websites will integrate the students in a modern digital world.

The partner students will have to behave as responsible European citizens getting involved effectively for the climate challenge. They will also be able to debate and exchange good practice among the European Union inhabitants and at the same time they will get the opportunity to enlarge their knowledge on the European Institutions.
