Eco-Education: Pathways to a Sustainable Future
About this course
Eco-Education: Pathways to a Sustainable Future is an adult education group mobility that helps adults understand today’s environmental challenges and take practical action in their daily lives and communities. It is designed for adult learners of all backgrounds, including those with fewer learning opportunities, and requires no previous knowledge of environmental topics. Sessions use plain language, visual materials and hands-on activities so everyone can take part fully.
Based on the European Sustainability Competence Framework (GreenComp), the programme covers four practical areas: understanding sustainability values, making sense of complex environmental issues, imagining sustainable futures and acting for change. Participants explore climate change, biodiversity, responsible consumption, waste, energy and water, and discover simple habits that save resources and money. They also use digital tools to measure their footprint and learn how to take part in local environmental initiatives.
Each participant follows a personal learning path, from an initial self-assessment to a final review of competences gained. Participants leave with practical green skills, a personal sustainability toolkit, a learning portfolio and an action plan to bring sustainable practices to their home, organisation and local community.
