Ecological Education for Belarus, Russia and Ukraine
The project promotes lifelong learning in Belarus, Russia and Ukraine for vocational school and general school teachers. It develops and delivers e-learning continuing education courses on environmental education, supporting the three governments' efforts to embed environmental education throughout their education systems.
The University of Bremen coordinates implementation with universities and other partners in Gomel, Minsk and Vitebsk in Belarus; Lipetsk, Magnitogorsk, Novgorod, Novosibirsk, Rostov-on-Don and St Petersburg in Russia; and Kyiv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Chernivtsi and Pereyaslav-Khmelnytskyy in Ukraine. European universities and partners in Germany, Latvia, Slovakia and the Czech Republic provide support.
The first year focuses on professional development for partner-country university lecturers, conceptual work and establishing e-learning systems. The second focuses on course development; the third on testing, delivery and continuous improvement.
