GreenComp
We want to increase the sustainability competence of our students. We want to teach our students how to become systemic and critical thinkers, as well as develop agency, and form a knowledge basis for everyone who cares about our planet’s present and future state.
In view of the growing need for people to improve and develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes to live, work and act in a sustainable manner, the European Commission has developed the European Sustainability Competence Framework, called GreenComp. This framework identifies a set of sustainability competences to feed into education programmes and projects to help learners: “Become systemic and critical thinkers, as well as develop agency, and form a knowledge basis for everyone who cares about our planet’s present and future state.”
