The newsletter showcases some recent events and news including some important information about the upcoming Summer School. Please join us this summer at the NEB-LAB Eco²Schools Summer School which takes place from 29 June to 4 July 2025
During the NEB-LAB Eco²Schools Summer School, the 4 main steps of NEB-LAB Approach will be discussed:
- Demonstrate that educational buildings can become enablers of the New European Bauhaus
- Propose ways of learning or gaining knowledge and/or the education and pedagogical focus for effective integration of these topics into the curriculum
- Develop and deliver the pathway on how schools can become a physical place of education and knowledge
- Re-consider the relationship of the schools with the local communities as hubs of innovation towards the green transition and sustainable development (Co-design, LLs)
Based on the principles of the New European Bauhaus, the NEB-LAB Eco²Schools Summer School will showcase practical ways to create a building that inspires forward-looking, inquiry-based learning, and a sense of ownership among students and building stakeholders alike. Furthermore, it will demonstrate that educational organizations canact as drivers for the development of green neighbourhood “living labs” (Designing project-based, experiential learning led by schools with parents, local businesses, the wider community).
During the NEB-LAB Eco²Schools Summer School, participants will develop concrete climate action plans so that their schools can be transformed into innovation hubs in their communities, raising citizen awareness activities to facilitate social innovation, promote education and training for sustainability, conducive to competences and positive behaviour for a resource-efficient and environmentally respectful energy use.
