Description
The project is focused on the implementation of knowledge about climate change into the environmental education in school and on the implementation of water detention measures in the school area. The objective of the project is to increase awareness and knowledge regarding the adaptation to climatic changes. It is expected that the project will create a system of environmental education curricula focused on climate change and rainwater management and that it will publish project information to the general public on the Internet. The curricula focused on management of rainwater and climatic changes will be modified for the school education programme. It is also expected to build such adaptation measures as: rainwater garden, underground tank, new planting of trees and sprays irrigation. The two main targets groups are the children and students who will participate on the implementation of the project.
Summary of project results
The project was needed to improve climatic conditions as flood prevention. In the long run, the use of rainwater by our measures has contributed to improving the climate situation in our area. We consider more green around the school to be a positive change - beautiful rain gardens with herbs, lawn irrigation and planted trees. The adaptation measures that we realized are: Catching rainwater and its use for irrigation and the pond, Use of rainwater on rain gardens, Planting of plants with healing properties, Planting of trees around the school. Therefore we are very satisfied with the implementation of the project in our school. We managed to mobilize all target groups and project partners of the project as well as to achieve its objectives. We managed to implement all measures to capture and use of rainwater. Participants were professionally instructed at conference about possible measures, the resulting effects and the use of measures in our school as well as the resources and support of project financing. Negative aspect of the project were lengthy procurements. Overall, we believe that we positively contributed to climate changes and environmental improvement.
