The collaboration between scientists and educators from different countries provides a unique opportunity to exchange experiences and learn about best practices in eco-sustainability. The project's relevance is rooted in the pressing need to address the environmental challenges outlined in the European Green Deal. By enhancing eco-skills among the population, particularly youth, the project contributes to Ukraine's efforts to align with European environmental standards and foster a more sustainable future.
