Summary of the project

This project intends to generate knowledge and awareness in educational communities helping them to improve their immediate environment. In the first place because there is a strong need to provide schools with bioclimatic solutions and we consider that the best way is to give tools to the users themselves. On the other hand, we think that school buildings, being learning centres, should be examples of other ways of building that are better adapted to the climate and more respectful of the environment. And, finally, we believe that generating this knowledge in educational centres can be an easily extendable germ to homes and, at the same time, to workplaces, since easily replicable and adaptable strategies would be proposed. A germ of knowledge as a tool in the fight against climate change and energy poverty.
The project consists of 3 phases:
1) the elaboration of a Guide / Catalogue of bioclimatic solutions for Schools,
2) the application on the CEIP Huerta de Santa Marina, in Seville, as a pilot project,
3) specific actions of social and institutional awareness and incidence.
