We’re delighted to launch our range of programmes this Autumn to support your school or youth group to learn more about the environment, improve young people’s skills and confidence, and make a difference in your community!
There’s many ways your school can get involved in our environmental education and youth programmes, for teachers and students alike:
- Inspiring Youth Action in the Young Environmentalist Awards 2018: the biggest Eco-Action programme in Ireland that recognises and rewards young people who take practical action to improve their local environment.
-
Workshops for Students on ‘Sustainable Development; ‘Taking Action’; and tailored workshops
- Set up an ECO-Club at your school
Places for some of these programmes are allocated on a first come first serve basis and tend to book up fast!
If you would like information or to book any of these programmes please email communications@ecounesco.ie or call 01 662 5491 indicating what areas you are interested in.
