Unleashing Creativity: Results of the Nature-Based Solutions in Education Competition 2023

The NBS EduWORLD project challenged teachers with the Nature-Based Solutions in Education Competition for Teachers 2023, held during the STEM Discovery Campaign 2023 (1 February – 30 April 2023), to increase awareness of the value and benefits of teaching about nature-based solutions (NBS) to students of all ages. The Competition was supported by Scientix and Trane Technologies.
 
The Competition asked teachers to create and submit an original Learning Scenario in English, introducing students to the benefits of nature-based solutions (NBS). Educators got the chance to share with the NBS and Scientix communities their most creative ideas for STEM-related activities involving NBS, thus showcasing their work and exchanging good practices with peers around the world.

Fifteen Learning Scenarios have been shortlisted and will be published in the NBS EduWORLD Repository, the Scientix Resource Repository and other NBS portals, and among them, 8 winners were selected. The winners will be invited to participate either in an exclusive Science Projects Workshop in the Future Classroom Lab of European Schoolnet in Brussels (Belgium) in June, or to take part in a Summer School organized by Ellinogermaniki Agogi in Marathon (Greece) in July, depending on the level of NBS knowledge of their entry, i.e., beginner, advanced, expert.
