Project Summary

This project aims to address importance of taking action on the Sustainable Development Goals.They are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity. In a globalized world, where the changes in economic and natural resources can be felt halfway around the globe, our challenges are becoming more intertwined with the systems that connect us all. All Society needs a new approach to solve future problems. The school system needs to adopt innovation and creative thinking to prepare students of the future. Creativity and innovation are considered to be at the heart of successful strategies adopted by modern educational systems. Developing global active citizens who are passionate about caring for others and our world is essential for them to be members of our society. Students will grow up to be adults in an increasingly interconnected and multicultural society. They need to be aware of cultural norms and differences around the world so that they can succeed and thrive. Opportunity to work on an international level with these initiatives gives students an insight vision into issues that exist around the world so they can truly understand the importance of the SDGs. What our students learn in school determines who they become as individuals and their success throughout their lives.Today’s Education becomes even more important for developing the next generation of innovators and creative thinkers.

ACTIVITIES
STM.Students begin in the present by looking at the issue that concerns them and why it is important for the future. What do their society expects from them as individuals and how they depend on them as future citizens.
Encouraging students to be an entrepreneur and address the problem and the solution in a creative way. Creativity is an essential skill that enable students to meet with future challenges and competitions. Creativity and innovation will be the best strategies to meet with the demands and challenges of the future problems.
LTM.This activity reinforces the cooperation between participating schools. The cooperation between schools will be measure by the impact of the project activities on the institutional level, and offers enormous potential towards the internationalization and opening up of schools. LT study mobility of pupils can be a valuable international pedagogical experience for schools and teachers involved. The main impact for our pupils will be the development of their understanding of the diversity of European cultures, languages, as well as their personal growth.
METHODOLOGY: Application of different teaching methods, ensuring methodological diversity, guaranteeing varied lessons for students and adoption of different perspectives.Both inductive and deductive teaching methods will be used to foster creative and creative thinking, team work, communication skills, digital competence and personal and social responsibility.
RESULT AND IMPACT: Participants will foster a positive improvement to their lives.Our students will grow up to be adults in an increasingly interconnected and multicultural society. Students need to be aware of cultural norms and differences around the world so that they can succeed and thrive. Results can be divided into:
1.Outputs; immediate results achieved after the completion on every activity. For e.g. after every STM students output might be around 100 students, teachers and families with deeper understanding of the SDGs
2.Outcomes; the results will achieved after a period of time a change occurs in the project activity. Continuing the above e.g. the outcome might be; the participants used their new understanding to inform other members of their community about SDGs
3.Impact; the long-term result that will come because of the activities undertaken in the project. For the above e.g. the impact of the project might be that one year after the project is finished, the whole community is aware of issues concerning the SDGs.
Students need empathy to develop healthy relationships throughout their lives.Building compassion among pupils leads to passionate, engaged adults.Together, we can be a powerful force for achieving a vision of a more peaceful, healthy and equitable world. Long term benefits will contribute to the formation of good, well-balanced and well-informed future citizens of Europe, who will go on to take an active role in democratic society.The project will spread within the school organizations and become a natural part of school development.The project can led to important opportunity for pupils they otherwise would not have. Increased tolerance and comprehension towards multiculturalism is a long term benefits.
