OUR MISSION
The European Sustainable Schools Awards aim at supporting the green transition of European schools through the exchange of practices, and by encouraging school staff to adopt creative solutions to promote sustainability, both in the curriculum and in the school as a system. The project promotes the creation of future-oriented curricula that make the students true agents of change (e.g. save resources, reduce energy use and waste, compensate for carbon footprint emissions, opt for sustainable food and mobility choices, etc.) and supports the planned approaches of the participating organisations regarding environmental sustainability.
