For many years, climate change has concrete consequences. The episodes of major climatic events, such as floods, occur at most every two years. Each territory in Europe is different but they have the same problem:  huge economic consequence as well as the impact on the populations after a natural disaster creating a major social crisis. The lack of preventive way of thinking concerning the citizens as well as the lack of management when these events occur, worsen the aforementioned consequences. Thus, we wanted to come together solicited by local populations and actors with all our differences and complementarities to create a real educational innovation to fill those gaps. Indeed, the prevention of risks, the management and the resilience of territories in the face of disasters concerns the skills of the European partners to prepare the part of the European population that lacks awareness.

 

The project is organised around three main objectives:

​

Creating and support campaign for education players to teach them about natural risks. Providing professionals to train about natural risk thanks to a platform, a MOOC or mapping.

​

Developing innovative teaching tools combining cross-disciplinary themes to teach children about natural risks. The result of this objective is to communicate list of online tools already existing and create a new tool for young people. Also, it is necessary to share knowledge with everyone through a booklet to involve European citizens.

​

Promoting of the local challenges of climate and strengthening the role of local communities in risk prevention through teaching and education for young people and adults. The result of this objective is to create a network of experts and teachers. The project aims at contibuting to a series of conferences and workshops about the natural risk management in schools in order to prevent a disaster. The target group of the project are teachers, and more precisely the ones involved in primary and secondary levels of education. Others educational professionals can be a part of it. For instance, headteachers, institutes, universities, college or other structure. Collectives, associations or competent local authorities with the educational competent can also be target.
