improve teachers’ ability to teach issues related to the climate crisis, using the innovative educational practice of escape rooms capable of achieving multiplier positive results.
-
encourage students to seek effective solutions to address and combat the climate crisis.

achieve a multiplier effect, exploiting technology, and enhancing digital skills.
The EcoMystery project will offer national education systems new methodologies for teaching about climate change, such as gamification (escape rooms) and the use of digital tools which can have a multiplier positive effect. In this way, it will motivate the school community to take a proactive role in environmental education and action, while promoting active environmental citizenship and sustainable development.
