SUSTAIN-SKILLS

Sustainability Education as an Innovative Catalyst for Proficiency in Basic Skills

About the project

SUSTAIN-SKILLS uses sustainability education as a catalyst for basic skills — literacy, numeracy, science, digital and citizenship skills — by anchoring them in real sustainability challenges across primary and secondary school.

At its heart is a blended sustainability simulation — a card game, a digital platform and a micro-credential — used as a cross-curricular vehicle in a whole-school model. ACCELERAS leads its co-design; schools, teacher education and education authorities test it together as a European policy experiment.

Objectives

  1. 01Use sustainability themes to strengthen basic skills
  2. 02Equip teachers with practical, cross-curricular methods
  3. 03Test the approach in schools in several countries
  4. 04Inform education policy with evidence
