What needs do we plan to meet?

Environmental problems, which have arisen as a result of humankind’s approach from past to present, which can be summarized as “dominating nature” and “using nature crudely”, are one of the fundamental problems of world societies. The increasing demand for resources has gradually led to loss of productivity and reduction of biodiversity. According to the EU environment and climate report, depletion and pollution of water resources can cause serious problems and water scarcity could affect a third of the world’s population by 2025. Environmental pollution has reached horrific levels for every country. This is a problem for the whole world and European countries. All European countries accept that if we want to raise a healthy society, we must start by solving environmental problems. The way to achieve European citizenship is to have environmental awareness. If we want to spread and develop environmental awareness and European citizenship awareness, we need to start from school education and teachers’ awareness. Change and development all over the world begins with education. At this point, schools and teachers have a lot of work to do. For this reason, we want to take part in European and Erasmus+ events, raise awareness about combating environmental pollution and climate change and pass this on to future generations. Among the EU Goals, activities planned to combat environment and climate change are among the horizontal priority issues. Environmental awareness also focuses on being inclusive and holistic, as it is a common problem for people of all ages, races and religions, and in this respect, it is among the priority targets of EU Erasmus+ with its subject and features. With LTT events, we want to ensure that our teachers and students are active parts of the solution to environmental problems with STEAM-based methods and techniques. We want to develop a common European citizenship awareness with our project, which is a joint work of organizations, schools and non-governmental organizations of different structures for our world, which is a common value of all countries.
