EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

ABOUT THE CALL

The call “Strengthening the Contribution of Civil Society Organisations to Education for Sustainable Development” aims to encourage the further development of communities by empowering civil society organisations, as key drivers of change, to contribute to spreading knowledge about sustainable development in their work with children and young people.

By developing sustainable development programs for preschool and school-aged children, the youngest generations are introduced to the importance of understanding sustainability principles and their practical application. The initiative also fosters partnerships with kindergartens and schools, as well as with cities, municipalities, and counties where the programs will be implemented.
