For a Living Planet

 European Schools for a living planet 2010/2011 (ESFALP III):
Are you a teacher for 12-16 year olds in Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Moldau, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia, Ukraine?
We are happy to invite 3 teachers per country together with one of their students to participate in the Academy of WWF and ERSTE Foundation from 23rd to 29th of October 2010.

There you will be trained to facilitate nature and environmental projects with your school class!

We focus on three topics:
- the Danube – Europe’s lifeline
- the Ecological Footprint – consumption and global effects
- Active citizenship – get active and motivate others

It is important that we encourage young people to build up their mind and to see their possibilities to contribute to a socially and environmentally friendly planet earth. In this sense teaching is more than telling about facts and numbers. The goal of education for sustainable development is to give young people competencies and show possibilities that enable them to contribute actively and in a responsible way to a future worth living.

You and one of your students are invited to participate in the Academy from 23rd to 29th of October 2010 in Austria. All teachers are invited to attend the final event in Austria in June 2011. Language of the academy, project documentation and final event will be in English. Travel costs, lodging and the participation are free.

Out of all applicants WWF and ERSTE Stiftung will select three teachers per country who are allowed to bring one of their students. If you are interested in participating please please fill in the attached application-form and attach a cover letter (one page) explaining why you and your school class want to participate in this project.

Please send your application and your cover letter not later than 17th of September 2010 to: WWF Austria, Danica Bauer, Ottakringerstraße 114-116, A-1160 Vienna or by email: danica.bauer@wwf.at
