Smile Project
By the end of this century, climate is expected to change due to the large amounts of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions in the atmosphere. The introduction of greener actions like sustainable mobility will improve the well-being and health of all citizens and future generations.
Education about Climate Change
Climate change is a persistent issue that demands sustained efforts, which is why it is crucial to disseminate education about it in both elementary and high school levels. Equipping teachers’ knowledge and skills on using green activities will contribute to achieving environmental sustainability.
About the project
The aim of the SMILE project is to build the capacity of teachers to be able to implement activities with students in the field of climate change, sustainable mobility and STEAM education in order to increase awareness on the topic.
The SMILE methodology
The project will introduce the SMILE methodology and educational resources to offer the training needed for teachers on climate change which will help students act as agents of change for sustainable mobility. The appropriate sustainable competences will be developed in order for students to become aware of the climate change problem and the need of the sustainable mobility action to decrease the GHG emissions entering the atmosphere.
