Workshops for teachers of all disciplines as part of the Environmental Schools Project.

Together with teachers from Saudi Arabia, you can create a list of criteria for your schools and develop ideas on how to make your school more environmentally friendly. The best school will receive the slogan “Eco-friendly school” if they introduce the sustainability criteria and implement them for a period of two years.
