Informing and educating young people on more sustainable behaviours and choices to build a future Generation informed and interested in Bioeconomy

Descripción del proyecto

Preparar a los adultos del mañana para que asuman su papel en una bioeconomía circular y sostenible

Las generaciones jóvenes son las principales impulsoras de la bioeconomía. Por eso es importante preparar a los niños de hoy para que asuman su papel en la futura bioeconomía circular y sostenible. En este contexto, en el proyecto financiado con fondos europeos GenB, participarán otros proyectos e iniciativas europeos. El objetivo general del proyecto es inspirar y fomentar entre los jóvenes y las generaciones futuras la concienciación, la sensibilidad y el interés respecto a cuestiones ambientales, la sostenibilidad y la circularidad. En cooperación con jóvenes, padres y maestros, el equipo de GenB creará recursos como conjuntos de herramientas sobre bioeconomía y sectores de base biológica. Para maximizar sus efectos, en GenB se implicará ampliamente a la sociedad, se crearán sinergias con otras iniciativas y se consolidará su modelo educativo.
