Since it is the younger generations who will bear the greatest consequences of the current environmental crisis, it is essential for teachers to bring these topics into the classroom. Even more importantly, educators must learn how to approach them in a way that inspires action and hope, fostering a sense of possibility and responsibility rather than fear or despair.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\">This new course \u201c<\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700\">Zielone umiej\u0119tno\u015bci w edukacji: promowanie \u015bwiadomo\u015bci ekologicznej i zr\u00f3wnowa\u017conych dzia\u0142a\u0144 w klasie<\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\">\u201d, took place in <\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700\">Teneryfa <\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\">from17\/08\/2025 to 23\/08\/2025, with 12 participants from 3 different countries: Ellen from<\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700\"> Kindersprachbr\u00fccke Jena e.V. <\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\">in Germany<\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\"><span>,<\/span><\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\"> Sara, Ilaria, Valerio\u00a0 and Anna from<\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700\"> NIA\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\">in Italy, Zselyke from <\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700\">HLW FSB Weiz <\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\">in Hungary, Valentina from <\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700\">Liceo Lanfranconi <\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\">in Italy,\u00a0 Alfonso, Laura,\u00a0 Cosetta, Alberto and\u00a0 Maria Chiara\u00a0 from <\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700\">IC 2 e 4 Vicenza<\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\"> we W\u0142oszech.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"wsite-multicol\">\n<div class=\"wsite-multicol-table-wrap\" style=\"margin:0 -15px;\">\n<table class=\"wsite-multicol-table\">\n<tbody class=\"wsite-multicol-tbody\">\n<tr class=\"wsite-multicol-tr\">\n<td class=\"wsite-multicol-col\" style=\"width:50%; padding:0 15px;\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"wsite-image wsite-image-border-none\" style=\"padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center\"> <a>  <\/a> <\/p>\n<div style=\"display:block;font-size:90%\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"wsite-multicol-col\" style=\"width:50%; padding:0 15px;\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"wsite-image wsite-image-border-none\" style=\"padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center\"> <a>  <\/a> <\/p>\n<div style=\"display:block;font-size:90%\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"wsite-image wsite-image-border-none\" style=\"padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center\"> <a>  <\/a> <\/p>\n<div style=\"display:block;font-size:90%\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph\"><span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\">At the beginning of the week, we focused on what are considered <\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\">Zielone umiej\u0119tno\u015bci<\/span><span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\"> and why they are so vital in today\u2019s society.
