Education has a hugely important role to play in helping tackling climate change and driving the transition to a green energy continent. Challenges in transition develop rapidly, with a high demand for digital and green.
Sustainable Energy EDucation (SEED) appreciates the need to distil relevant information that is useful for the Centres of Vocational Excellence about issues of skills supply and demand. Therefore, throughout the project’s lifecycle the main focus will be on:
Investment in skills which are key to realising the clean energy transition.
Linking current concerns, recording good practices, and promoting knowledge exchange among the participating regions in order to develop strategic priorities tailored to their regional needs.
The innovation workshop creates a place where companies, residents, students, travelers, and researchers come together and work on innovations that will make life in the new neighborhood healthier and more sustainable. The new concepts are not merely reports, they strive to create physical prototypes so end users can experience the future and provide feedback. The practice supports the participating students to develop collaboration and innovation skills (such as analytical, critical and systems thinking), it encourages them to find creative and original solutions to complex problems and gives them the opportunity to strengthen their leadership and collaboration skills.
