Description du projet
Préparer les adultes de demain à assumer leur rôle dans la bioéconomie circulaire et durable
Les jeunes générations sont les principaux moteurs de la bioéconomie. C’est pourquoi il est important de préparer les enfants d’aujourd’hui à assumer leur rôle dans la bioéconomie circulaire et durable de demain. Dans ce contexte, le projet GenB, financé par l’UE, impliquera plusieurs autres projets et initiatives de l’UE. L’objectif global du projet est d’inspirer et d’encourager les jeunes et les futures générations à être conscients, sensibles et ouverts aux questions environnementales, à la durabilité et à la circularité. En coopération avec des jeunes, des parents et des enseignants, GenB créera conjointement des ressources comme des boîtes à outils sur la bioéconomie et les secteurs biosourcés. Afin de maximiser ses répercussions, GenB impliquera largement la société, créera des synergies avec d’autres initiatives et consolidera son modèle éducatif.
