Global Responsability
and Sustainable Actions
GLO-VET Context
”Making vocational education promote global responsibility and sustainable actions”, is an ERASMUS+ initiative called the GLO-VET project. GLO-VET tackles the most serious issue of our time – sustainable development and climate change – by developing the professional skills of teachers to integrate these topics in their teaching.
Sustainable development is already part of the vocational curriculum, but inspiring and easy-to-apply models are needed to carry out the learning process to help make students act for increased sustainability.
This website offers a collection of resources created in collaboration between the three VET colleges involved in GLO-VET 2020-2023.
There is no Planet B! That is why our youths need to be creative and inspired by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and gain confidence to apply them to daily life.
On the website you find:
Training sessions applying SDGs in teaching
Resources – teaching materials
Quiz including 17 SDGs
Stories
Project video
Participants
The direct and indirect participants of the project are VET teachers and students in the partner schools.
More than 60 VET teachers
VET students reached on the topic of sustainable development through trained teachers
People reached through local actions
Project Outputs
Learning kits
The UN Sustainable Development Goals will be explained here easily to understand for the students. Clicking on further information will lead to a webpage with the material related to that SDG.
WEBSITE AS A TOOL
Technology can be the media to reach to more people (students and schools/organisations), to broad expectations and ideas, expand content and new thoughts and also get feedback. And all this will happen in our (your) site.
EXPERIENCE GAME
Through gamification of the contents, students can experience how much they know about each SDG. By decision-making and answering and guessing they will get through the contents related to the project.
Objectives
VET Teachers
For VET teachers to learn new pedagogical methods to mainstream UN sustainable development goals in their teaching, network with other teachers and share their experiences and good practices
VET Students
For VET students to develop their key competences, including social and intercultural competences, critical thinking and creativity, and to act collaboratively as responsible global citizens for a sustainable future
Schools and Institutions
For partner organisations to develop a whole school approach, and to ensure social and environmental responsibility of educational institutions taking part in the project
