Description

Twelve schools and seven kindergartens in the area of Pomorie, in partnership with IDN Norway, will design and conduct educational campaigns to inform about resource management, waste recycling and circular economy. Experts in the field will elaborate numerous educational courses to be included in the national undergraduate curriculum. Other activities include demonstrations on waste recycling in schools, pairing with Norwegian schools to examine and apply their approach as to how circular economy is taught in school and effective public awareness initiatives to involve the public in the process.

To engage the community in this initiative, the project also envisages the organisation of an eco-tournament between educational institutions by conducting different types of eco-competitions between children from different age groups and 2 promotional-demonstration excursions for students from Hristo Botev Primary School in Bata village and for Sv. Paisii Hilendarski Primary School in Kableshkovo, both aimed at acquiring practical knowledge about recycling, waste reuse and the circular economy among the young generation.
