Erasmus+ Project - Lycée Classique Diekirch

Human activity has a negative impact on our natural environment. The ecological crisis is a consequence of the past (mis)behavior of the human race and we feel it is important to raise pupil’s awareness of the ecological issues we are currently faced with, especially since the younger people will have to live with the negative consequences which become obvious and visible. Environmental issues are

transnational by their very nature, which calls for cross-border projects. It is important that youngsters become aware of the problems of other countries and of the actions (to be) taken. The project participants should be encouraged to reflect on the consequences of their own behavior and their approach towards the environment. They will be motivated to look for possible solutions. Participants will also consider the role of politics in the environment issues. The project should motivate pupils and hence reduce school dropout and attract pupils to the schools involved in the project. Moreover, the participants will get an insight into further new job possibilities in the field of the environment which could spur economic growth in Europe.
