Reimagining Our School's Courtyard for Sustainable Living

The project involves the redevelopment of a disused, tiled basketball court located near the secondary entrance of the school. In addition to this, the area surrounding the school building is partially occupied by trees and shrubs, while another part, where students gather, is paved with asphalt. This project aims to find a solution for this as well and transform it into a green area. The overall objective is to create a recreational and learning space for both the students and the local community.

Resilient cities for resilient citizens

This Learning Scenario (LS) for secondary schools focuses on exploring nature-based solutions (NBS) in designing sustainable buildings and green spaces in urban areas. Students from environmental engineering and planning, as well as agriculture specializations, will collaborate using interdisciplinary knowledge to design eco-friendly buildings with features like green walls and natural cooling systems, and create urban parks with NBS like air-purifying plants and rainwater harvesting systems.
