ABOUT

Eco-literacy is the ability to understand the complex relationships between nature, society, and ourselves. It empowers us to make informed, sustainable choices that protect and nurture our planet for current and future generations. By fostering eco-literacy, we can create a more harmonious and resilient world.

PoETs for pathways to ecoliteracy

Through this project, we aim to promote eco-literacy in all its forms—from sharing knowledge and good practices to inspiring positive actions. We believe that education is key to transforming our mindset towards a more sustainable human ecology. We work as a professional community of non-formal eco-trainers, offering educational services, learning materials, resources, and networking opportunities.

Our current project, PoETs — Pathways to Eco-Literacy, is funded by the Erasmus+ Adult Education Program.
