Task
 
Description and Evaluation

The methodology of SIEU builds upon the successful Dutch program “Schools for Sustainability” (SfS). In this program, students from vocational schools, who have learned the materials, pass along this tried-and-true information in the form of advice to the other stakeholders. By doing so, the students learn in a creative and interactive way how to find sustainable answers, gaining experience and understanding that may prove invaluable to them and to their communities in future years.
