Two-years Erasmus+-project: Rais­ing Aware­ness Ini­tia­tive through Sus­tain­abil­i­ty Edu­ca­tion in VET (RAISE VET) 2023–2025

In line with our school’s com­mit­ment to envi­ron­men­tal sus­tain­abil­i­ty, we launched a new Erasmus+initiative (KA2 project with Span­ish VET School, Arme­ria Esko­la, Eibar and Tech­ni­cal Uni­ver­si­ty, Ire­land): Rais­ing Aware­ness Ini­tia­tive about Sus­tain­abil­i­ty Edu­ca­tion in VET (RAISE VET) project This inno­v­a­tive ini­tia­tive aimed at rev­o­lu­tion­iz­ing edu­ca­tion and voca­tion­al train­ing will become a fac­tor of change with­in the frame­work of Edu­ca­tion for Sus­tain­able Devel­op­ment (ESD).

The main objec­tive is to raise aware­ness among teach­ers, stu­dents and indus­try of the need and ben­e­fits of ade­quate edu­ca­tion for sus­tain­able devel­op­ment to achieve the goals of the 2030 Agenda.

Sub-objec­tives:

  • Inte­gra­tion of Edu­ca­tion for Sus­tain­able Devel­op­ment into VET through a Euro­pean cross-sec­tion­al mod­ule cov­er­ing three weeks (1 vir­tu­al, 2 physical).
  • Fair Edu­ca­tion Options: Cre­at­ing teach­ing and learn­ing mate­ri­als that offer stu­dents oppor­tu­ni­ties for inter­na­tion­al learn­ing, espe­cial­ly those with few­er edu­ca­tion­al resources.
  • Devel­op­ing a sus­tain­able men­tal­i­ty: the project aims to empow­er future work­ers with the knowl­edge and val­ues need­ed to fos­ter a more eco­log­i­cal and respon­si­ble future.
  • Green Skills for Tech­no­log­i­cal Jobs: the ini­tia­tive seeks to reflect on the eco­log­i­cal skills required in tech­nol­o­gy-relat­ed pro­fes­sions, with the par­tic­i­pa­tion of var­i­ous aspects inter­est­ed in ensur­ing a bal­anced vision.
  • Glob­al aware­ness: the RAISE VET project is com­mit­ted to rais­ing aware­ness of the impor­tance of Edu­ca­tion for Sus­tain­able Devel­op­ment not only at local lev­el, but also at nation­al and inter­na­tion­al levels.

The project will achieve the fol­low­ing results:

  • Euro­pean Learn­ing Mod­ule on Sustainability

Aware­ness cam­paign on the devel­op­ment of envi­ron­men­tal intel­li­gence and the sus­tain­able men­tal­i­ty in the tech­ni­cal pro­fes­sions for the aware­ness of stu­dents, fac­ul­ty, busi­ness and soci­ety in general.
