We are thrilled to officially launch the ETHICO project, an exciting initiative aimed at equipping teachers and students with the knowledge and tools needed to engage with environmental ethics and promote sustainability in their everyday lives. At ETHICO, we believe that the future of our planet starts in the classroom, and we’re here to support educators in making environmental education a core part of their curriculum.
What is ETHICO?
ETHICO is an Erasmus+ funded project designed to help educators bring environmental ethics into the classroom in engaging, innovative ways. Through a combination of our E-Learning Platform for teachers and an Interactive Scenario-Based Game for students, we aim to inspire a new generation of environmentally conscious individuals who understand the importance of sustainable thinking.
Why Environmental Ethics?
Today, more than ever, it’s critical that we teach young people about the impact human activities have on our planet. From climate change to deforestation, pollution to species extinction, environmental challenges are deeply intertwined with the choices we make as individuals and societies.
Environmental ethics offers a way to explore these challenges in an educational setting, encouraging students to reflect on their responsibilities to the natural world and develop solutions that promote sustainability.
What We Offer
ETHICO provides two key resources to support educators and engage students:
- E-Learning Platform for TeachersOur platform offers educators a comprehensive, self-paced learning experience designed to build their knowledge of environmental ethics and ecopedagogy. With multimedia lessons, quizzes, and practical activities, teachers can learn how to integrate sustainability into their classrooms while earning certificates for professional development.
- Scenario-Based Game for StudentsLearning doesn’t have to stop with textbooks! Our interactive scenario-based game takes students on an immersive journey where they make decisions and explore real-world environmental challenges. Through this gamified experience, students will develop critical thinking skills and learn the consequences of their actions on the environment.
Our Mission
ETHICO’s mission is simple: to empower educators to lead the charge in promoting environmental ethics and sustainability. By providing teachers with the tools they need to teach these critical topics, we aim to foster a new generation of environmentally responsible citizens who are ready to tackle the challenges of tomorrow.
What’s Next?
Over the coming months, we’ll be rolling out exciting updates, including the official launch of the E-Learning Platform and the Scenario-Based Game. We’ll also be sharing insights, best practices, and stories from educators who are using ETHICO tools to make a real difference in their schools.
We invite you to follow along with our journey! Whether you’re an educator looking for fresh ideas, a student eager to learn, or someone passionate about sustainability, ETHICO is here to support you.
