ÉPOQUE

_ Description

The European Commission stresses the importance for the sustainable use of Natural Resources. The EU is working to mobilise public opinion, decision-makers and market operators and to set minimum energy efficiency standards and rules on labelling for products, services and infrastructure.

The project ÉPOQUE promotes a smart specialisation of prospective teachers, scientists and engineers through an environmental portfolio which can be fully integrated to the university syllabuses. It creates a new generation of green professionals in the context of higher education modernization agenda connected to SMEs and enterprises (including schools). Moreover, the direct involvement of schools during the project validation can act as a catalyst towards the sensitisation of the teachers for sustainable use of natural resources, with a concrete focus on energy, while it promotes the prompt awareness of young pupils on energy issues.
