Description
According to the Strategy for Climate Adaptation, heavy rains affecting the city are to be more frequent due to climate change, the water from the roofs of the primary school No. 195 in Wawer district flows towards the clinics and stores, flooding the area and making access to these services difficult. Similar problems occur in other areas of the district. To change this situation, the knowledge about the use of nature based solutions for landscape retention among inhabitants needs to be raised.
The project will sustainably manage rainwater from 3947 m2 school roofs, using various adaptation and mitigation solutions (45 in total) created with the participation of students, such as rain gardens, flower meadows, green roofs and walls, rainwater tanks, unsealing and permeable surfaces. Educational and instructional materials provided via the educational path (in the field and online) & the publication will enable education of students and teachers from other schools and Wawer residents.
The main goals of the project include:
Engage 450 students & 70 teachers (school 195) in BGI creation.
Educate 2600 primary school teachers from PL how to teach about CC.
Raise awareness of 1000 Wawer inhabitants about BGI implementation.
The beneficiaries of the projects thus include:
Students & teachers from the school 195 via active workshops.
Students and teachers in PL via lesson plans, publication, trainings.
Inhabitants of Wawer district via educational path and activities.
